How much does invega sustenna cost?

Prices for Invega Sustenna (paliperidone palmitate) vary a lot by country, pharmacy, and your dose. In the United States, a single monthly injection often costs roughly in the low to mid thousands before insurance, and the exact amount depends on the maintenance dose (117 mg, 156 mg, or 234 mg) as well as any loading doses (the Day 1 and Day 8 injections).

- Rough ballpark: about $1,000–$2,000 per injection before insurance. The first month usually includes extra injections (loading doses) that add to the cost.
- With insurance or a patient assistance program, your out-of-pocket can be much lower (often hundreds of dollars, but it varies).

What to do to get a precise figure:
- Check the cash price with your local pharmacy for the exact dose you’ll receive.
- Use a price comparison tool like GoodRx for the specific strength.
- Call your insurance plan to confirm coverage, copay, and prior authorization requirements.
- Ask Janssen Care Path or the manufacturer about patient assistance programs if cost is a barrier.
