In this paper, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability for the Drygas functional equation$$f(x+y)+f(x-y)=2f(x)+f(y)+f(-y)$$ in Banach spaces by using the Brz\c{d}ek's fixed point theorem. Moreover, we give a general result on the hyperstability of this equation. Our results are improvements and generalizations of the main result of M. Piszczek and J. Szczawi\'{n}ska [21].
