| 1 | schizophrenia | Horrible made me feel like a zombie gain 25kg weekness in muscles. Still on it my Dr won't take me off. Thinking about seeing him as its affected my ability to have another child. Even spent 1000 dollars at endocrinologist to prove it was the medication. He has me on a court order and gets it renewed every 12m. | Should be taken of market still have same thoughts on medication. | F | 29 | 3 years 100mg | 9/7/2015 | 1 | N/A | Brain Damage. | F | 29 | 3 years Highest | 11/3/2015 | 1 | I was in psychosis. | I think it worsened my psychosis. It was a traumatic experience. I forgive the people who gave it to me. I just do not want others to go through what I went through. I thank the Lord Jesus that He was with me and that He helps me deal with those memories. He has saved my soul and I will see Him soon when He comes back to earth! Maranatha. | This medication should not be court forced on people. I was not able to research what is in this drug and what the side effects are before being injected. | F | 29 | 2 weeks 1X W | 6/27/2020 | 4 | Bipolar psychosis | Prolactin high lactation tongue movement insomnia | F | 30 | 1 years 6mg | 11/14/2018 | 3 | diagnoised with sctizo effective | I am a woman and since ive been taking invega my breast has doubled the size they have a lawsuit for men who have been diagnoused with gynecomastia but i am a female and it isnt fair to be carring all this weight from my breast having big breast causes me to less able to do things i enjoy doing its difficult for me to tie my shoes having pressure on my breast just to tie my shoes its embarrasing i like to dance but with my breast being so big i cant dance like i want to i also like to run but with my breast being so big its hard for me to run invega also slows down my thinking progress i dont think as good as a normal person i dont have sharp thinking and every since ive been on invega injectable i have no sex drive they say deppresants can cause sex drive problems but before i was on invega injectable i had no problems with my sex drive i had skipped periods i reported these sideffects to my counselor and my doctor and they kept me on this drug i have been on this medicine for 4 years going on 5 years and they have done nothing just told me to keep taking it it kept me out of the hospital but i did get sick and was admitted to the hospital even though i was taking my injections every month so i didnt quite understand that one | F | 30 | 4 years 156mg | 4/27/2014 | 3 | bipolar manic | a little dry mouth, some tensing of the right foot | Turns me more into a vulcan...not a good thing, though. Thoughts are still a little racy and I have long discussions about esoteric subjects with the girlfriend (like math, which is not good for things like programming which require more philosophical and out-of-the-box thinking). Paranoid thoughts can be better countered through technical speak and empirical analysis with a psychiatrist. This drug doesn't help me much with that. | M | 30 | 1 days 3 MG 1X day | 2/14/2012 Patient History | 2 | bipolar | sleepiness, face around moustache and chin very red, dry, and irritated especially after shaving. Had no will to have sex and could not get a boner if i tried. Not enough reduction of BP symptoms. | Isn't working very well for me. I had to come off Risperdal because it stopped working after a year and now a couple years later i'm back on this which is some sort of isolated form of risperdal. I started on 3mg which wasn't "doing anything" to 6mg which sedated me and still didn't take away my horrible dreams or let me sleep which is one of the things my BP does to me. I am back on 3mg as of 2 weeks ago and am going to ask my MD this week about stopping due to being tired, boner problem, and face irritation. | M | 30 | 45 days | 9/16/2007 | 1 | BP-Voices | This medication was likely responsible for the deepest depression I have ever felt. I can't say this for sure, but the time frames correlate pretty well. | What's the point of remarketing a drug that is a downstream metabolite of another drug (Risperdal). Maybe I should add a hydroxyl group to some medication and call it my own. | M | 30 | 2 months | 10/4/2007 | 1 | Force | 30-40 side effects | Pure Sadism | M | 30 | 2 years 6X day | 8/9/2013 | 1 | Schizophrenia | this medicine does absolutely nothing at all! It's like taking a aspirin. | M | 30 | 11 months 2X day | 9/28/2010 | 1 | misdiagnosed schizophrenia | Weight gain (15kg's), headaches, pressure around the head, dizzyness, blurred vision, social anxiety. | M | 30 | 1 years 1xmonth | 3/19/2014 | 1 | Schizophrenia | Weight gain, lethargy, sleeping all day, unable to feel emotions, suicidal thoughts | This drug is poison and should be taken off the market. My Dr. said that there were no side effects, yeah Okay!! | F | 30 | 4 months 1X M | 4/11/2015 | 1 | SCHIZOPHRENIA | THERE IS A NEW INJECTION SHOT NAMED Invega Sustenna COMING OUT IN FALL OF THIS YEAR. IT IS SUPPOSE TO LAST 1 MONTH. | THE TRADITIONAL RISERDAL CONSTA INJECTION ONLY LASTS 2 WEEKS. ACCORDING TO MY DOCOTOR Invega Sustenna WILL BE VERY EXPENSIVE. TWICE AS MUCH AS RISPERDAL CONSTA. | M | 30 | 3 months | 7/13/2009 | 1 | BiPolar | Anxiety, acne-like rash on face and neck, major depression, negative thinking, fogginess of mind that persisted after stopping invega. | Worst experience of my entire life, I pray this didn't cause permanent brain damage, still suffering from invega side effects months later after stopping medication. I have a horrible facial rash. | F | 30 | 6 months Shot 1X M | 9/18/2013 | 1 | Forced- Arizona C.O.T. - punishment | Anxiety, depression, headaches, stuttering, feeling disconnected, negative/gross thoughts, panic attacks, anxiety attacks, shortness of breath, sleep paralysis,confusion, memory loss, speech problems, muscle stiffness, SEVERE ABDOMINAL PAIN, swollen anus, constipation, strange muscle movements, strange/uncontrollable eye movements, lack of focus, lack of motivation, severe sleepieness. | THIS DRUG IS HORRIBLE! I have been force to take it for a year now via injection, despite the fact it has no benefits. I dont know what the agenda or motive is behind prescribing this awful drug, but they need to STOP! I was way better off before taking this awful drug. Since taking this drug i have had EXCRUCIATING PAIN in my abdomin/anus/intestines, the pain is so bad it makes me cry like a baby and im a 30 year old man. I have a friend who has the same problem, hes had to call the ambulance. This drug, especially when injected, will make you dry and enflammed. Your intestines will feel like you are being cut in the inside. Awful pain. This company HAS A MAJOR LAWSUIT comming their way, them and the awful psychiatrists who prescribe this CRAP! They are violating human and constitutional RIGHTS. This crap needs to be taken IFF THE MARKET, banned, it is crap, their are 0 benefits from taking this drug, take my word for it. I have no reason to lie. | M | 30 | 1 years | 5/10/2018 | 1 | wanted to | I tried one pill and my body would not stop burning. From my head to my feet. It was so weird I don't know how to explain it. It lasted a week. I thought I was going to die. It was burning on my head so I always kept cold pack on it. I had to be in the cold. I turned the air on and it was like fridge in my room. It went away but I feel wore out every day now. | Does anyone know what it was? I was going to go to the doctor but had no money. | M | 30 | 1 days 1X day | 11/16/2015 | 1 | Bipolar disorder | Papilledema, severe swelling of optic nerve, decreased libido, decreased ejaculation,extreme weight gain,decreased cognitive function. | This drug should be pulled from the market. I am in the process of filing a lawsuit against the maker of this drug Jansen and Jansen pharmaceuticals will pay for what this drug has done to me!!!! | M | 30 | 4 years 12 mg | 6/10/2015 | 1 | Misdiagnosed with schizophrenia | Being on invega has been the worst experience, my emotions are dead I can't feel a thing, I'm always upset and sad. I wish I never took this med, now I'm wondering if this bad feeling will last for the rest of my life, I want to get off this med asap. It ruined my life. | M | 30 | 8 months 150 mg | 3/12/2017 | 5 | Schizoaffective disorder | I can get a bit tired and experience a bit of lethargy. I believe the drug can slow you down. Also I sometimes get red eyes after evening dose that correlates to me getting sleepy. Anyone with this side effect? | F | 31 | 2 years 6mg | 3/4/2014 | 4 | Paranoid Schizophrenia | involuntary eye twitching, weight gain, decreased libido | I guess it helped to take away my paranoid feelings and delusional thinking. My parents say it has helped me a lot. | M | 31 | 1 years 6 mg 1X day | 3/21/2010 |
