What is the lowest dose of Invega Sustenna?

Invega Sustenna (paliperidone palmitate) comes in a lowest available maintenance dose of 39 mg given as a monthly injection. [1]

Is 39 mg the lowest dose even during the start of treatment?

No. The initiation regimen uses higher “starter” injections rather than starting at the 39 mg maintenance dose. The first month of treatment is given according to the prescriber initiation schedule, and 39 mg is the lowest dose used for ongoing monthly maintenance. [1]

How dosing works after initiation

After the initiation doses, dosing for Invega Sustenna is typically continued on a monthly schedule, with the dose options including 78 mg, 117 mg, and 156 mg as well as 39 mg for lower-dose maintenance. [1]
