Since all of these medications are controlled substances my insurance will only cover a certain dosage. Like with mine which BCBS of Texas, it will cover Ritalin for 20 mg a day but only if I get it prescibed in the 10mg tablets which I take one in the morning a half at noon and another half at 3. It won''t cover the 5mg tabets which I would take two in the morning, one at noon and one at 3. There both the same thing but for some reason the insurance doesn't see it that way. It would be so much better if I could just get it filled at the 5mg dose but then that would be too easy, I guess.
So it would certainly be good to ask them what dosages they cover as well.
