Real Stories
Behind every diagnosis is a person, a family, a story. Hear from people living with schizophrenia and their care partners as they share their journeys to finding the right treatment path with long-acting
injectables (LAIs).
INVEGA SUSTENNA
Living With 12 Doses a Year
“The transition from oral medication to INVEGA SUSTENNA was an easy
decision because not having to take oral schizophrenia pills and doing a 1-month injectable treatment meant that I wouldn’t accidentally skip a dose, or I wouldn’t accidentally double up on a dose.”
