How long does it take for INVEGA TRINZA to work?
"Low energy may take longer to improve, but don't be discouraged if it takes a few months to feel like your old self.
Your symptoms will improve over time, with some improvements happening quickly (within hours to days) and others happening gradually over the course of weeks to months. You may see quick improvements in your frustration and agitation levels, and your sleep and mood should improve within the first week. Your thinking will become more clear and organized over the course of 2-8 weeks, and your energy levels may take longer to improve, but this is normal. Don't be discouraged if it takes a few months to feel like your old self again."
