But none of them are going to be worth a damned as soon as they are generic. We already have Invega–the active metabolite of Risperidone. The drug company already has lots of shrinks switching their patients to it–even though they have done no head to head to comparisons to show it has any advantages–just their one-sided sales job. Gotta get those folks off the essentially equivalent predecessor drug before it gets cheap. We saw the same thing with Lexapro to “replace” Celexa. Come on folks. put the shills out of your office and read some journals.
