What is the brand name for Risperidone RBP-7000?

• A. Perseris
• B. Risperdal Consta
• C. Invega Sustenna
• D. Invega Trinza

Answer: (A)

Risperidone RBP-7000 is a subcutaneous, extended-release formulation of risperidone designed for monthly dosing, and its brand name is Perseris. This form is distinct from Risperdal Consta, which is an intramuscular long-acting risperidone given every two weeks, and from Invega Sustenna and Invega Trinza, which are long-acting formulations of paliperidone palmitate (not risperidone) given monthly and every three months, respectively. The key idea is that RBP-7000 corresponds to risperidone in a subcutaneous depot form, marketed as Perseris, while the others involve different routes, dosing intervals, or a different drug in the same class.
