  • the treatment of schizoaffective disorder in adults as monotherapy and as an adjunct to mood stabilizers or antidepressants

INVEGA TRINZA® for:

  • the treatment of schizophrenia in patients after they have been adequately treated with INVEGA SUSTENNA® for at least four months.

This resource simulates the paliperidone plasma concentrations over time resulting from different dosing scenarios that are set forth in the respective Prescribing Information for INVEGA SUSTENNA® and INVEGA TRINZA®. The Educational Dose Illustrator is intended to be used as a resource to foster a better understanding of, and educate healthcare professionals about, the dosing recommendations provided in the respective Prescribing Information for INVEGA SUSTENNA® and INVEGA TRINZA®. It is intended for educational purposes only.

Because the simulated patient paliperidone plasma levels shown in the dosing scenarios are based upon aggregated pharmacokinetic information from clinical studies, the simulations may not be representative of individual patient response.
