QELBREE (viloxazine hydrochloride)

Viloxazine C max and AUC increase proportionally over a dosage range from 100 mg to 600 mg once daily. Steady-state was reached after two days of once-daily administration, and no accumulation was observed.

AbsorptionThe relative bioavailability of viloxazine extended-release relative to an immediate-release formulation was about 88%. The median (range) time to peak plasma concentration of viloxazine (T max ) was approximately 5 hours, with a range of 3 to 9 hours, following a single 200 mg dos...

ADHD Studies in Pediatric Patients The efficacy of Qelbree in the treatment of ADHD in pediatric patients 6 to 17 years of age was evaluated in three short-term, randomized, placebo-controlled monotherapy trials (Studies 1, 2, and 3).

Study 1(NCT03247530) was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, three-arm placebo-controlled, parallel group monotherapy trial in patients 6 to 11 years of age with ADHD. Total duration of treatment was 6 weeks, including a 1-week titration period (starting at 100 mg once daily) and 5-week maintenance phase. Patients were randomized to receive 100 mg, 200 mg, ...
