  1. Consistent with the INVEGA SUSTENNA® Prescribing Information:

    The release of the drug from a single dose of paliperidone palmitate starts as early as day 1 and lasts for as long as 126 days with the 234 mg dose. However, a second dose of INVEGA SUSTENNA® 156 mg administered in the deltoid one week later is necessary to attain therapeutic concentrations rapidly.
