New antipsychotic approved in the US

Posted by ed_uk on December 26, 2006, at 10:38:07

The new AP which isn't really new....

In the US, paliperidone (Invega) has just been approved as a new atypical antipsychotic for the treatment of schizophrenia. Unfortunately, however, it would appear that paliperidone is not particularly novel. Paliperidone is simply the major active metabolite of risperidone (Risperdal), formulated as an extended-release tablet.
