NCT01211704

Brief Summary

The primary specific aim is to examine the efficacy of Paliperidone extended release Paliperidone Palmitate Injection (INVEGA® SUSTENNA™) compared to placebo in decreasing manic symptoms in patients with comorbid DSM-IV bipolar disorder and alcohol dependence. The investigators hypothesize that the Paliperidone Palmitate Injection (INVEGA® SUSTENNA™) treated group will have a statistically significant advantage on improvement in manic symptoms. They will also have higher rate of treatment response and remission.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Paliperidone Palmitate Injection (INVEGA® SUSTENNA™) treated group will have a statistically significant advantage on improvement in manic symptoms.

    This research can increase knowledge about the utility of paliperidone for improving symptoms of bipolar disorder and cravings of alcohol. If proven effective in reducing these symptoms, paliperidone could be a good and safe treatment option for dual diagnosis.
