Azstarys a Replacement for Focalin in Philadelphia, Manhattan & Delaware.

Описание: If your ADHD symptoms are well-controlled with Focalin (dexmethylphenidate) IR or Focalin XR, but you cannot fill it consistently due to the ADHD stimulant medication shortage, talk to your provider about Azstarys (dexmethylphenidate/ serdexmethylphenidate).

As a Psychiatrist in Philadelphia, Manhattan, Pittsburgh, and Delaware, it can be frustrating to see patients prescribed the same medications over and over (for example, Adderall, Vyvanse, Focalin and Ritalin), even when they have a great deal of difficulty filling their prescriptions on a monthly basis. When a patient suffers from ADHD, being consistent with not only their routine, but also their medication management, can make a world of a difference for their treatment and symptom control.

Many patients (and even providers) are surprised to hear that Azstarys is readily available at pharmacies and specialty pharmacies, is typically not difficult to have approved through someone's commercial insurance, and that it contains the same active ingredient as Focalin (dexmethylphenidate) and a second ingredient that is metabolized into Focalin as well (serdexmethlphenidate). Thus, if a patient does well with Focalin, and has minimal side effects, it only makes sense that they will likely do well with Azstarys. In fact, if a patient cannot consistently fill Focalin, but they can consistently fill Azstarys, I'd venture to say that they will likely do better with their ADHD symptom control, if prescribed Azstarys, than Focalin IR or XR.

The ADHD medication shortage has been quite the headache, but if you work with providers who understand the psychopharmacology of these medications, have relationships with local specialty pharmacies, keep up-to-date about branded medication's promotions and take the extra time to help their patients, the ADHD stimulant shortage can be a lot easier for patients to manage.
