Paliperidone

Uses

Paliperidone is used in the treatment of schizophrenia and mania.

How it Works

How Paliperidone works Paliperidone is an atypical antipsychotic that functions by influencing the levels of chemical messengers, specifically dopamine and serotonin, to enhance mood, thoughts, and behavior.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Paliperidone include abnormal involuntary movements, dizziness, injection site reactions (pain, swelling, redness), nystagmus (involuntary eye movement), sleepiness, and tremors.

Expert Advice

  • Take it in the morning, preferably at the same time every day.
  • To reduce the risk of feeling dizzy or fainting, rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down.
  • Exercise caution while driving or performing tasks that require concentration, as Paliperidone may cause dizziness and sleepiness.
  • Paliperidone may lead to an increase in weight, blood sugar, cholesterol, and triglycerides (fat).
  • Maintain a healthy diet, engage in regular exercise, and monitor your levels consistently.
  • Regularly check your blood sugar, as Paliperidone can impact blood sugar levels.
  • Do not discontinue Paliperidone without consulting your doctor first, as this may result in a worsening of symptoms.
