Have you been on Invega Sustenna or Aristada?

Postby bipolar31 » Sat Aug 19, 2017 2:22 am

I was on Invega Sustenna for 2 years and I gained 60 pounds along with increasing my prolactin levels. I've been off Invega since May 2017 and my prolactin levels have decreased to normal levels but I'm still having problems losing weight. My stomach looks like I'm 6 months pregnant. I'm used to being thin and have never gained weight, it's making me really depressed. My doctor started me on Aristada injection, which is a cousin to Abilify. Do you know if Aristada causes weight gain? Has anyone tried it?

If it's like Abilify then you won't gain weight. Also, Abilify ecreases prolactin levels.
