First-in-class treatment when appropriate.
Old-school experience and new-tech efficiencies to safely manage first-in-class medications when they are appropriate. Dr. D follows you closely.
What 'first-in-class when appropriate' means
Care matched to the patient, not to a default protocol.
First-in-class medications are the medications that are clinically preferred for adult ADHD when they are appropriate for the specific patient. They are not appropriate for everyone. The decision is clinical.
Dr. D's approach is to start where the evidence and the patient's situation both point, then follow the response carefully. Optimization is the work of paying attention to what is actually happening (at work, in routines, in sleep, in the parts of life that matter) and adjusting the plan as the picture comes in.
