Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR INVEGA SUSTENNA TO LEAVE YOUR SYSTEM AFTER YOU COME OFF IT? I AM LACTATING AND I ALSO HAVE GAINED 40 POUNDS ON INVEGA SUSTENNA. WILL I LOSE WEIGHT AND STOP LACTATING AFTER THE MEDICATION LEAVES MY SYSTEM? I ALSO HAVE OTHER SIDE EFFECTS APART FROM THOSE TWO?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Invega has a long half life range of 25 to 49 days. This is the time it takes for plasma levels to fall by half. It roughly takes around 5 to 6 half lives for a drug to be eliminated from your system.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
