How should Risperdal Consta™ be used?
Risperdal Consta™ injections are given only every two weeks because it is a long-acting injection that provides the body with consistent levels of drug.During the first three weeks of treatment, additional antipsychotic drugs must be used. This is because the first injection will not start to work straight away. Your doctor will explain this to you if you are prescribed Risperdal Consta™ .
