Hi Benjamin,
I called your insurance regarding the prior authorization. I just wanted to confirm, do you prefer the brand-name Adderall? The insurance informed me that they are unable to cover the brand medication, but they provided the following covered alternatives. Please let me know if any of these would work for you.
Adderall 5 mg alternatives:
• Dextroamphetamine-Amphetamine 5 mg

• Dextroamphetamine 2.5 mg
Adderall 25 mg Capsule alternatives:
• Dextroamphetamine-Amphetamine 25 mg
