Hi, all.

I started invega during my recent psych hospital trip. Since increasing the dose from 3mg to 6mg, I've noticed that every other day or so, my stomach will get very upset. It'll blow up like a balloon, and I'll get real nauseous. Is there anything I can do to remedy this, besides taking Pepto? 

I'm willing to talk to my doctor about switching to Risperdal, as the Risperdal worked for me in the past (albeit with a butt load of different side effects). The invega was difficult to acquire from the pharmacy, as no pharmacy in my town had the 6mg in stock, and the only pharmacy that could order it and have it in the following day was the hospital's outpatient pharmacy. My insurance won't pay for two 3mg tablets either (the hospital doctor tried that). As I've said in my post from yesterday, I don't feel the invega is working as well as it could anyway. 

So, I'm open to ideas. Thank you!
