October 17, 2024Onyda XR (clonidine hydrochloride), the first and only liquid non-stimulant ADHD medication approved in the U.S., and the only such medication with nighttime dosing, became available nationwide for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) on October 1.

1The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Onyda XR on May 24 as a monotherapy ADHD treatment or as an adjunctive therapy to approved central nervous system (CNS) stimulant medications in pediatric patients six years and older.Tris Pharma developed Onyda XR with its proprietary LiquiXR® technology, which converts immediate-release drugs into extended-release formulations for once-daily dosing.

Onyda XR is considered a centrally acting alpha2-adrenergic agonist medication that belongs to the same class of drugs as Guanfacine (Intuniv) and clonidine (Kapvay).Patients with ADHD who experience adverse side effects from stimulants or who respond poorly to stimulant medications may find symptom relief in a non-stimulant medication.

A systematic review and meta-analysis published in May by Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews reported that non-stimulant medication is nearly as effective as stimulant medication at improving executive function in children, adolescents, and adults with ADHD.
