Granules India got approval for ADHD drug from USFDA

Drug firm Granules India said its subsidiary has received approval from the US health regulator for Methylphenidate Hydrochloride extended-release capsules, used for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The approved product is bioequivalent to the reference listed drug product (RLD), Ritalin LA extended-release capsules of Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. There are a few types of ADHD drugs accessible across the world, with Adderall being the most well-known, with the US having many prescriptions for this being made available to those who have ADHD, however, there are some issues with this type of drug as it can be abused by those who do not have this disorder, that is why, despite the fact that this cannot be fully stopped, the use of alternative drugs like this one coming out as well as looking into an Adderall supplement stack on Vagarights.com can help those who are in need.

The US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has approved the abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) filed by Granules Pharmaceuticals, a wholly-owned foreign subsidiary of Granules India, for Methylphenidate Hydrochloride extended-release capsules in the strengths of 10 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, 40 mg and 60 mg.

Till date Granules Pharmaceuticals, Inc. had submitted total 19 ANDAs and the current approval is the third ANDA approval for the entity. Approvals for the balance 16 ANDAs are awaited.
