摘要

An subcutaneously implantable device for delivering Risperidone to a patient includes a pump, a compartment configured to store a pharmaceutical formulation, and a volume of the pharmaceutical formulation loaded in the compartment, the pharmaceutical formulation including Risperidone solvated or suspended in a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent in concentration of at least 50 milligrams per milliliter. The implanted pump may then deliver a therapeutically effective dose of Risperidone to the patient.
