Summary

• Always check the needle hub for signs of damage or leakage after attaching the needle to the syringe using a gentle twisting motion. A cracked needle hub can result in leakage of the medication and incomplete administration of the dose.¹
• Slowly inject the entire contents of the syringe intramuscularly, deep into the selected upper-outer quadrant of the gluteal muscle of the patient. Do not administer by any other route.¹
• Administration of INVEGA HAFYERA should be in a single injection. Do not administer the dose in divided injections.¹
• Future injections should be alternated between the two gluteal muscles.¹
• No clinical data are available on administering partial or divided doses of INVEGA HAFYERA.
