schizophrenia
"The medicine is partly covered by my issurance company. Current maintenance dosage 3 mg (was 6mg) Invega. After taking Invega my positive symptoms vanished completely after a number of weeks, furthermore I don't get an unreal sense (depersonalization) which was the case with Risperdal. Unfortenately I got the following side-effects (discussed with my physician):



- weight gain (8 kilo's)

- sometimes strange expression around mouth, stiffness

- tiredness/weakness, need more sleep

- intense dreaming, sometimes nightmares

- harder to breath through nose

- increase of ALAT blood values (80)

- dizziness after sudden activity

- heartburn



For now the positive effects outweight the negative effects."
