$4k annual savings on stimulants for adult #ADHD There are some classes of medications we don't think about being high cost, as generics are readily available or the brand name products on #formulary offer high #rebates. Azstarys is one that is brand name only, has FDA approval for adults and runs nearly $400 per month. There are ongoing trials in adults but this trial doesn't compare it with other stimulants. When it comes to ADHD medications, we have very little data for head-to-head trials. Generally, we know stimulants are superior to non-stimulants and we understand duration of these drugs in the body. My patient had previously used twice a day dosing dextro/amphetamine (generic Adderall) and once a day extended release methylphenidate (generic Concerta). The move to Azstarys was prompted by incomplete drug tapering in the evening, leading to poor sleep. Lisdexamphetamine (Vyvanse) is a great option before something like Azstarys as they have a similar duration. Since it has been generic, there have been some availability issues and price has increased subtly compared to the initial low price at market introduction. Regardless, this change offered significant cost savings for my patient and their plan sponsor; while, simultaneously, improving quality of life. #apothicorwellness #pharmacists

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) presents unique challenges for those affected. While traditional medications are available, some individuals are seeking alternative solutions like medical cannabis. This plant contains compounds that interact with our brain's chemistry, potentially influencing focus, attention, and impulsivity – key areas affected by ADHD. Research suggests cannabis may impact dopamine levels, a neurotransmitter vital for focus and attention. Certain strains, particularly those high in CBD, are known for their calming effects, which could help manage hyperactivity and impulsivity. 👉🏻 To learn more and become a patient, tap this link https://buff.ly/3ykS72q #adhd #adhdcanada #canadahealth

It's completely understandable to feel apprehensive about exploring natural alternatives to ADHD medications. Your concerns about self-worth, authenticity, and the perception of others are valid and commonly experienced by many individuals navigating similar situations.

Everyone's journey with ADHD is unique, and finding the right approach that works for you is essential.

It's essential to prioritize your health and safety above all else and to seek guidance from healthcare professionals as you navigate this transition. Sharing your experiences and insights can be incredibly valuable for others who may be going through similar struggles or considering alternative approaches.
