How often is Paliperidone Palmitate (Invega Sustenna) administered?

  1. Weekly

  2. Monthly

  3. Every 3 months

  4. Every 6 months

The correct answer is: Monthly

Preference for Paliperidone Palmitate (Invega Sustenna) as a long-acting antipsychotic medication is due to its monthly dosing schedule, which is more convenient for patients and ensures consistent therapeutic levels. The other options, such as weekly or biannual administration, may not provide enough or sustained treatment, whereas every 3 months may not align with a monthly schedule.
