UZEDY is a subcutaneous, extended-release suspension formulation of risperidone, an atypical antipsychotic approved by the FDA in April 2023. It is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability associated with autism spectrum disorder. Risperidone works by antagonizing dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors, reducing psychotic symptoms and mood dysregulation.
UZEDY is in peak commercial phase with modest Part D spending; expect focused efforts on market penetration and clinical evidence generation to compete against established long-acting risperidone competitors.
