Onyda XR, a liquid non-stimulant ADHD medication, became available nationwide on October 1. FDA approved it on May 24 for pediatric patients aged 6 and older, either as monotherapy or adjunctive therapy to CNS stimulants. Developed by Tris Pharma using LiquiXR® technology, Onyda XR is a centrally acting alpha2-adrenergic agonist, similar to Guanfacine and clonidine. Non-stimulant medications like Onyda XR are nearly as effective as stimulants in improving executive function, according to a May meta-analysis. Combination therapy with stimulants is increasingly popular for extended symptom coverage and reduced side effects.
