for Tardive Dyskinesia in Adults

Once-daily dosing for tardive dyskinesia (TD)1

Once-daily AUSTEDO XR offers a personalized approach
to dosing.


Your healthcare provider will start you at a low dose and gradually increase your dose over time. This approach allows your body to get used to the medication and can help with side effects as movements are reduced. This way, your doctor can find a dose that works for you. This process is called titration.1,2

Talk to your doctor, nurse
practitioner, or other healthcare provider about once-daily
AUSTEDO XR.

Because everyone is different, your
maintenance dose will be the one that
works specifically for you.

Starting dose

Your doctor will start you on a low dose of AUSTEDO XR, and will work with you to find your maintenance dose.

Maintenance dose

Once you reach a dose that provides effective movement reduction and is tolerated, that will become your maintenance dose. If you want to increase your dose, you and your doctor can discuss more dosing options.

Why AUSTEDO XR offers personalized dosing

This titration approach could mean fewer side effects and more time to understand how the medication affects your body. It also means you and your doctor work together to figure out the dose that's effective for you.
