Abstract

Antipsychotic long-acting injections improve relapse prevention in psychotic disorders. Three new risperidone formulations have been developed that offer advantages over currently available risperidone-based long-acting injections. Risperidone ISM ® is a monthly intramuscular injection that does not require loading doses or concurrent oral risperidone. RBP-7000 is a monthly subcutaneous injection not requiring loading or oral supplementation. BB0817 is a 6-monthly implant of risperidone injected subcutaneously. All three preparations have been shown to be effective and well tolerated in clinical trials. A fourth formulation (TV-46000), which can be given subcutaneously every 1 or 2 months, has recently begun trials.
