Why two NDCs? The FDA registers this code as 70370-4060-1 — a 5-4-1 layout, and that's what's printed on the package and shown on DailyMed. For insurance claims, every NDC is standardized to a uniform 11-digit 5-4-2 format by adding a zero to the package segment → 70370-4060-01. Same drug, same package — only the format differs.

📖 What it is MedlinePlus · NLM

Valbenazine is used to treat tardive dyskinesia (uncontrollable movement of the face, tongue, or other body parts) and chorea (sudden movements that you cannot control) caused by Huntington's disease (an inherited disease that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain). Valbenazine is in a class of medications called vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitors. It works by changing the activity of certain natural substances in the brain.

Pricing

A drug doesn't have one price. Each row is a different public payment system, and none is what you'd pay at the counter — that depends on your insurance. The ⓘ on each row explains what it measures.

Price systemPer eachPer package
Retail pharmacies payNADAC · weekly Not in the retail survey — common for institutional, discontinued, or low-volume packs.
Medicaid paysCMS SDUD · 12 mo $289.41 $8,682.34 / 30 capsules

Where does this data come from?
NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) is the CMS weekly pharmacy-acquisition-cost survey — what pharmacies pay. ASP (Average Sales Price) is the CMS Medicare Part B drug-payment file, published quarterly. Medicaid pays is computed by us from CMS State Drug Utilization Data (total reimbursed ÷ units, trailing 12 months) — gross of rebates and inclusive of dispensing fees, so it reflects what Medicaid paid, not an acquisition cost. Medicare drug plans pay is the median negotiated point-of-sale unit cost across plans listing this NDC in the CMS quarterly Prescription Drug Plan pricing files, before rebates. The VA pays is the federal contract price (FSS, and the statutory Big 4 ceiling where listed) from the VA National Acquisition Center pharmaceutical price file. All are free public government data; each measures a different payer, so the figures are not directly comparable.

🔒Generic approved by FDA, but pharmacy availability is not confirmed

The FDA lists approved generic versions of this medicine, but that does not always mean a pharmacy can get one today. Patent rules, launch agreements, supply and pricing can affect when generics actually arrive.

🛡️ Latest patent/protection date listed: FDA patent/protection data lists protections through Aug 2040. This may affect when a full generic version becomes widely available, but it is not a guaranteed launch date.
📅 FDA approved Apr 30, 2024 RLD RS ⏳ ~13.9 yr to latest listed protection

Why the date isn’t exact: Generic timing can change because patents may be challenged, settled, licensed, added, removed, or worked around with a narrower label — and FDA approval does not always mean a pharmacy can get the generic today.

Substance patent Formulation patent Method-of-use patent Exclusivity Pediatric +6mo
🏛️FDA exclusivity
FDA-granted marketing protection. It’s separate from patents and may be shorter than patent protection.
🧪Product / substance patents
Patents covering the active ingredient, product, formulation, or related drug features.
🎯Method-of-use patents
Patents covering specific approved uses. These can sometimes be carved out with a “skinny label,” but not always.
🛈 What do these terms mean?
Patent
Legal protection listed in the Orange Book that may delay generic approval or launch. Issued by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office.
Substance patent
Covers the active drug molecule itself — the hardest to design around. A generic generally can’t launch until it expires.
Formulation (product) patent
Covers a specific formulation or dosage form. A generic can sometimes work around it with a different formulation.
Method-of-use patent
A patent covering one specific approved use of the drug — not necessarily the whole molecule. A generic can sometimes launch with a “skinny label” that carves out the protected use and keeps the others.
Skinny label
A generic label that omits a still-patented use when the FDA allows it — letting a generic reach the market for the unprotected uses.
Exclusivity
FDA-granted marketing protection, separate from patents — e.g. 5-yr new chemical entity, 7-yr orphan drug, or a +6-month pediatric extension.
Paragraph IV
A generic applicant’s formal challenge to a listed patent. It can potentially lead to earlier generic entry, but often involves litigation or a settlement.
RLD / RS
Reference Listed Drug — the brand product the FDA uses as the reference for generic applications. Reference Standard — the product the FDA expects generics to compare against in bioequivalence testing.
TE / AB rating
FDA therapeutic-equivalence rating. An AB rating generally means the FDA considers a generic therapeutically equivalent to — and substitutable for — the brand.
LOE (loss of exclusivity)
The latest patent or exclusivity currently listed — the loss-of-exclusivity / latest-listed-protection date shown on this page. Paragraph-IV challenges and settlements can move the real date earlier; FDA approval and a manufacturer’s decision to market can move it later.

Built from the FDA Orange Book. The bars above are scaled to each protection’s expiry; the red LOE marker is the last one to lapse.

Common questions
Is there a generic version of INGREZZA 60 MG SPRINKLE CAP?
Yes — an FDA-approved generic equivalent is listed in the FDA Orange Book for INGREZZA 60 MG SPRINKLE CAP. See the alternatives section for substitutable, lower-cost products.
The FDA approved a generic — why can’t I get it at my pharmacy yet?
FDA approval and pharmacy availability are two different things. The FDA can approve a generic years before it actually reaches pharmacies, because the brand company may still hold patents or have a settlement that delays the launch. A manufacturer also has to choose to make and sell it, and have supply ready. So a drug can be “FDA-approved generic exists” and still be brand-only at the counter today.
Why do different websites show different generic release dates?
Generic availability is not based on one single date. Some sources use the first exclusivity expiration, some use the last product patent, and others use the latest method-of-use patent. Patent challenges, settlements, licenses, and label carve-outs can also change the real-world launch date. This page shows the underlying Orange Book dates so you can see why estimates may differ.
What does “FDA listed” mean?
It means the product appears in the FDA’s official NDC directory. That’s a good sign a product exists and is intended for the U.S. market, but on its own it does not confirm a pharmacy can fill it today. Where we have recent retail pricing data (NADAC) for a product, we label it “Availability likely” instead.
What does a patent or protection date mean here?
It’s the latest date currently listed in the FDA Orange Book for a patent or exclusivity on the brand product. It can affect when a full generic version becomes widely available — but it is not a guaranteed generic launch date. Generics sometimes arrive earlier (through a settlement or patent challenge) or later (a manufacturer still has to make and sell one).
What does “current Orange Book estimate” mean?
It means we are using the latest patent and exclusivity dates currently listed in the FDA Orange Book. It is not a guaranteed launch date.
Can a generic come out before the last patent expires?
Sometimes. A generic company may challenge a patent, settle with the brand manufacturer, receive a license, or obtain approval with a narrower label that avoids a patented use. In other cases, the last listed protection may delay full-label generic competition.
Can a generic come out after the listed dates?
Yes. Even after patents or exclusivity expire, a generic still needs FDA approval and a manufacturer must choose to market it. Supply, litigation, business decisions, or regulatory issues can delay actual availability.
What is the difference between patents and exclusivity?
Patents are legal protections usually issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. FDA exclusivity is marketing protection granted by the FDA. They are separate, and either one can affect generic timing.
Why are there multiple patent dates?
One drug can have several patents covering different things: the active ingredient, a formulation, a manufacturing process, or a specific approved use. That is why a page may show several expiration dates instead of one simple generic date.
Built from FDA Orange Book patent and exclusivity data. Dates are refreshed from public FDA data when available; the marker is max(latest patent expiry, latest exclusivity expiry). Paragraph-IV settlements and first-filer 180-day exclusivity can shift the real date; a method-of-use patent may allow an earlier skinny-label generic for non-protected indications. Generic launch timing is an estimate, not a guarantee.
Where does this data come from?
Patents and exclusivity from the FDA Orange Book (small-molecule drugs), refreshed from public FDA data. Generic launch timing is an estimate, not a guarantee.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Depression and suicidal ideation and behavior in patients with Huntington’s disease. ( 5.1 ) Hypersensitivity, including angioedema may occur. Discontinue if this occurs.

( 5.2 ) Somnolence/sedation: May impair patient’s ability to drive or operate hazardous machinery. ( 5.3 ) QT Prolongation: May cause an increase in QT interval. Avoid use in patients with congenital long QT syndrome or with arrhythmias associated with a prolonged QT interval.

( 5.4 ) Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS): Discontinue if this occurs. ( 5.5 ) Parkinsonism: Cases of parkinson-like symptoms, some of which were severe, have been reported in the postmarketing period. Reduce the dose or discontinue INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE treatment in patients who develop clinically significant parkinson-like signs or symptoms.

( 5.6 )

5.1Depression and Suicidal Ideation and Behavior in Patients with Huntington’s Disease Patients with Huntington’s disease are at increased risk for depression, and suicidal ideation or behaviors. VMAT2 inhibitors, including INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE, can increase the risk for suicidal ideation and behaviors in patients with Huntington’s disease. In a 14-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] , depression or depressed mood was reported in 4.7% of patients taking INGREZZA compared to 1.6% of patients who received placebo, and no patients taking INGREZZA reported suicidal ideation or behavior compared to 1 patient (1.6%) who received placebo.

Patients with significant risk for suicidal behavior or with unstable psychiatric symptoms were excluded from this trial. Suicidal ideation (9 subjects; 7.2%) and suicide attempts (3 subjects; 2.4%) were reported in the longer open-label extension trial (N=125). When considering the use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE, the risk of suicidal ideation and behaviors must be balanced against the need for treatment of chorea.

All patients treated with INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE should be observed for new or worsening depression, suicidal ideation or behaviors. If any of these reactions occur and do not resolve, consider discontinuing treatment with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE.

5.2Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions, including cases of angioedema involving the larynx, glottis, lips, and eyelids, have been reported in the postmarketing setting in patients after taking the first or subsequent doses of INGREZZA [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.2 )] . A case of angioedema involving the lips and face, with rash and shortness of breath was reported in a patient with Huntington’s disease taking INGREZZA during a clinical study. Urticaria and rash were also reported during a clinical study in patients with Huntington’s disease.

Angioedema associated with laryngeal edema can be fatal. If any of these reactions occur, discontinue INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE. 5.

3 Somnolence and Sedation INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE can cause somnolence and sedation, which was the most common adverse reaction in placebo-controlled trials with INGREZZA [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Patients should not perform activities requiring mental alertness such as operating a motor vehicle or operating hazardous machinery until they know how they will be affected by INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE . 5.

4 QT Prolongation INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE may prolong the QT interval, although the degree of QT prolongation is not clinically significant at concentrations expected with recommended dosing. In patients taking a strong CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 inhibitor, or who are CYP2D6 poor metabolizers, INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE concentrations may be higher and QT prolongation clinically significant [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )] . For patients who are CYP2D6 poor metabolizers or are taking a strong CYP2D6 inhibitor, dose reduction may be necessary.

For patients taking a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor, reduce the dose of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE to… [Excerpted — this section continues on DailyMed.]

6.1Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The safety of INGREZZA SPRINKLE has been established from adequate and well-controlled studies of INGREZZA [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . Below is a display of the adverse reactions of INGREZZA in these adequate and well-controlled studies.

Tardive Dyskinesia Variable and Fixed Dose Placebo-Controlled Trial Experience The safety of INGREZZA was evaluated in 3 placebo-controlled studies, each 6 weeks in duration (fixed dose, dose escalation, dose reduction), including 445 patients. Patients were 26 to 84 years of age with moderate to severe tardive dyskinesia and had concurrent diagnoses of mood disorder (27%) or schizophrenia/ schizoaffective disorder (72%). The mean age was 56 years.

Patients were 57% Caucasian, 39% African-American, and 4% other. With respect to ethnicity, 28% were Hispanic or Latino. All subjects continued previous stable regimens of antipsychotics; 85% and 27% of subjects, respectively, were taking atypical and typical antipsychotic medications at study entry.

Adverse Reactions Leading to Discontinuation of Treatment A total of 3% of INGREZZA-treated patients and 2% of placebo-treated patients discontinued because of adverse reactions. Common Adverse Reactions Adverse reactions that occurred in the 3 placebo-controlled studies at an incidence of ≥2% and greater than placebo are presented in Table 1 .

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Dose adjustments due to drug interactions ( 2.4 , 7.1 ): Factors Dose Adjustments for INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE Use of MAOIs with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE Avoid concomitant use with MAOIs. Use of strong CYP3A4 inducers with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE Concomitant use is not recommended. Use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE Recommended dosage is 40 mg once daily.

Use of strong CYP2D6 inhibitors with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE Recommended dosage is 40 mg once daily.

7.1Drugs Having Clinically Important Interactions with INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE Table 3: Clinically Significant Drug Interactions with INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs) Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with MAOIs may increase the concentration of monoamine neurotransmitters in synapses, potentially leading to increased risk of adverse reactions such as serotonin syndrome, or attenuated treatment effect of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE. Prevention or Management: Avoid concomitant use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with MAOIs, or within 14 days of discontinuing therapy with an MAOI.

Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors increased the exposure (C max and AUC) to valbenazine and its active metabolite compared with the use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE alone [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. Increased exposure of valbenazine and its active metabolite may increase the risk of exposure-related adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )]. Prevention or Management: Reduce INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE dose when INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE is coadministered with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5 )].

Strong CYP2D6 Inhibitors Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with strong CYP2D6 inhibitors increased the exposure (C max and AUC) to valbenazine’s active metabolite compared with the use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE alone [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 , 12.5 )] . Increased exposure of active metabolite may increase the risk of exposure-related adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )]. Prevention or Management: Reduce INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE dose when INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE is coadministered with a strong CYP2D6 inhibitor [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5 )].

Strong CYP3A4 Inducers Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with a strong CYP3A4 inducer decreased the exposure of valbenazine and its active metabolite compared to the use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE alone. Reduced exposure of valbenazine and its active metabolite may reduce efficacy [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. Prevention or Management: Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inducers with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE is not recommended [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5 )].

Digoxin Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with digoxin increased digoxin levels because of inhibition of intestinal P-glycoprotein (P-gp) [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Prevention or Management: Digoxin concentrations should be monitored when co-administering INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE with digoxin. Increased digoxin exposure may increase the risk of exposure-related adverse reactions.

Dosage adjustment of digoxin may be necessary.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Pregnancy: May cause fetal harm. ( 8.1 ) Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed. ( 8.2 )

8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary The limited available data on INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE use in pregnant women are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk. In animal reproductive studies, no malformations were observed when valbenazine was administered orally to rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis at doses up to 1.8 or 24 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area. However, administration of valbenazine to pregnant rats during organogenesis through lactation produced an increase in the number of stillborn pups and postnatal pup mortalities at doses <1 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 [see Data ].

Advise a pregnant woman of the potential risk to a fetus. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes.

The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in the U.S. general population is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies, respectively. Data Animal Data Valbenazine was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at 1, 5, and 15 mg/kg/day, which are approximately 0.1, 0.6, and 2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area. Valbenazine produced a significant decrease in maternal body weight gain at 0.6 and 2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

No adverse embryo fetal effects were produced when valbenazine was administered at doses up to 2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Valbenazine was administered orally to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis at 20, 50, and 100 mg/kg/day, which are approximately 5, 12, and 24 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . No malformations were observed at doses up to 24 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

However, valbenazine produced a delay in fetal development (decreased fetal weights and delayed ossification) at 24 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 , likely secondary to maternal toxicity (decreased food intake and loss in body weight). Valbenazine was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis through lactation (day 7 of gestation through day 20 postpartum) at 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg/day, which are approximately 0.1, 0.4, and 1.2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Valbenazine produced an increase in the incidence of stillbirths and postnatal pup mortality at 0.4 and 1.2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

Valbenazine did not affect neurobehavioral function including learning and memory and had no effect on sexual maturation at doses <1 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 (because of death in the majority of the high dose group (1.2 times the MRHD), these parameters were not assessed in this group).

8.2Lactation Risk Summary There is no information regarding the presence of valbenazine or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Valbenazine and its metabolites have been detected in rat milk at concentrations higher than in plasma following oral administration of valbenazine at doses 0.1 to 1.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Based on animal findings of increased perinatal mortality in exposed fetuses and pups, advise a woman not to breastfeed during treatment with INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE and for 5 days after the final dose.

8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary The limited available data on INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE use in pregnant women are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk. In animal reproductive studies, no malformations were observed when valbenazine was administered orally to rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis at doses up to 1.8 or 24 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area. However, administration of valbenazine to pregnant rats during organogenesis through lactation produced an increase in the number of stillborn pups and postnatal pup mortalities at doses <1 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 [see Data ].

Advise a pregnant woman of the potential risk to a fetus. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes.

The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in the U.S. general population is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies, respectively. Data Animal Data Valbenazine was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at 1, 5, and 15 mg/kg/day, which are approximately 0.1, 0.6, and 2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area. Valbenazine produced a significant decrease in maternal body weight gain at 0.6 and 2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

No adverse embryo fetal effects were produced when valbenazine was administered at doses up to 2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Valbenazine was administered orally to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis at 20, 50, and 100 mg/kg/day, which are approximately 5, 12, and 24 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . No malformations were observed at doses up to 24 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

However, valbenazine produced a delay in fetal development (decreased fetal weights and delayed ossification) at 24 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 , likely secondary to maternal toxicity (decreased food intake and loss in body weight). Valbenazine was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis through lactation (day 7 of gestation through day 20 postpartum) at 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg/day, which are approximately 0.1, 0.4, and 1.2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Valbenazine produced an increase in the incidence of stillbirths and postnatal pup mortality at 0.4 and 1.2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

Valbenazine did not affect neurobehavioral function including learning and memory and had no effect on sexual maturation at doses <1 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 (because of death in the majority of the high dose group (1.2 times the MRHD), these parameters were not assessed in this group).

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3

12.1Mechanism of Action The mechanism of action of valbenazine for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia and chorea in patients with Huntington’s disease is unclear, but is thought to be mediated through the reversible inhibition of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), a transporter that regulates monoamine uptake from the cytoplasm to the synaptic vesicle for storage and release.

12.2Pharmacodynamics Valbenazine inhibits human VMAT2 (Ki ~ 150 nM) with no appreciable binding affinity for VMAT1 (Ki > 10 µM). Valbenazine is converted to the active metabolite [+]-α-dihydrotetrabenazine ([+]-α-HTBZ). [+]-α-HTBZ also binds with relatively high affinity to human VMAT2 (Ki ~ 3 nM). Valbenazine and [+]-α-HTBZ have no appreciable binding affinity (Ki > 5000 nM) for dopaminergic (including D2), serotonergic (including 5HT2B), adrenergic, histaminergic or muscarinic receptors.

Cardiac Electrophysiology INGREZZA and INGREZZA SPRINKLE may cause an increase in the corrected QT interval in patients who are CYP2D6 poor metabolizers or who are taking a strong CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 inhibitor. An exposure-response analysis of clinical data from two healthy volunteer studies revealed increased QTc interval with higher plasma concentrations of the active metabolite. Based on this model, patients taking an INGREZZA 60 mg or 80 mg dose with increased exposure to the metabolite (e.g., being a CYP2D6 poor metabolizer) may have a mean (upper bound of double-sided 90% CI) QT prolongation of 9.6 (12.0) msec or 11.7 (14.7) msec, respectively as compared to otherwise healthy volunteers given INGREZZA, who had a respective mean (upper bound of double-sided 90% CI) QT prolongation of 5.3 (6.7) msec or 6.7 (8.4) msec [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] .

12.3Pharmacokinetics Valbenazine and its active metabolite ([+]-α-HTBZ) demonstrate approximate proportional increases for the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (C max ) after single oral doses from 40 mg to 300 mg (i.e., 50% to 375% of the recommended treatment dose). Absorption INGREZZA Following oral administration of INGREZZA, the time to reach maximum valbenazine plasma concentration (t max ) ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 hours. Valbenazine reaches steady state plasma concentrations within 1 week.

The absolute oral bioavailability of valbenazine is approximately 49%. [+]-α-HTBZ gradually forms and reaches C max 4 to 8 hours after administration of INGREZZA. INGREZZA SPRINKLE Following administration of 80 mg INGREZZA SPRINKLE orally as sprinkle on applesauce, the geometric mean peak plasma concentration (C max ) of valbenazine was 512 ng/mL, area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC inf ) was 5,600 ng*hr/mL and the median time to reach C max (T max ) was 1.5 hours. For the [+]-α-HTBZ metabolite, the geometric mean C max was 23 ng/mL, AUC inf was 739 ng*hr/mL and the median T max was 6 hours.

Following oral administration of 80 mg INGREZZA, the geometric mean C max , AUC inf and median T max of valbenazine were 744 ng/mL, 6,419 ng*hr/mL and 0.5 hour, respectively. For the [+]-α-HTBZ metabolite, the geometric mean C max was 26 ng/mL, AUC inf was 859 ng*hr/mL and the median T max was 6 hours. When 80 mg INGREZZA SPRINKLE capsules were swallowed whole with water, the geometric mean valbenazine C max , AUC inf and median T max were 685 ng/mL, 5,981 ng*hr/mL and 1 hour, respectively.

For the [+]-α-HTBZ metabolite, the geometric mean C max was 23 ng/mL, AUC inf was 772 ng*hr/mL and the median T max was 6 hours. Effect of Food INGREZZA Ingestion of a high-fat meal decreases valbenazine C max by approximately 47% and AUC by approximately 13%. [+]-α-HTBZ C max and AUC are unaffected. INGREZZA SPRINKLE Ingestion of a high-fat meal decreases valbenazine C max by approximately 15% and did not have an appreciable effect on AUC. [+]-α-HTBZ C max and AUC are unaffected.

12.3Pharmacokinetics Valbenazine and its active metabolite ([+]-α-HTBZ) demonstrate approximate proportional increases for the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (C max ) after single oral doses from 40 mg to 300 mg (i.e., 50% to 375% of the recommended treatment dose). Absorption INGREZZA Following oral administration of INGREZZA, the time to reach maximum valbenazine plasma concentration (t max ) ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 hours. Valbenazine reaches steady state plasma concentrations within 1 week.

The absolute oral bioavailability of valbenazine is approximately 49%. [+]-α-HTBZ gradually forms and reaches C max 4 to 8 hours after administration of INGREZZA. INGREZZA SPRINKLE Following administration of 80 mg INGREZZA SPRINKLE orally as sprinkle on applesauce, the geometric mean peak plasma concentration (C max ) of valbenazine was 512 ng/mL, area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC inf ) was 5,600 ng*hr/mL and the median time to reach C max (T max ) was 1.5 hours. For the [+]-α-HTBZ metabolite, the geometric mean C max was 23 ng/mL, AUC inf was 739 ng*hr/mL and the median T max was 6 hours.

Following oral administration of 80 mg INGREZZA, the geometric mean C max , AUC inf and median T max of valbenazine were 744 ng/mL, 6,419 ng*hr/mL and 0.5 hour, respectively. For the [+]-α-HTBZ metabolite, the geometric mean C max was 26 ng/mL, AUC inf was 859 ng*hr/mL and the median T max was 6 hours. When 80 mg INGREZZA SPRINKLE capsules were swallowed whole with water, the geometric mean valbenazine C max , AUC inf and median T max were 685 ng/mL, 5,981 ng*hr/mL and 1 hour, respectively.

For the [+]-α-HTBZ metabolite, the geometric mean C max was 23 ng/mL, AUC inf was 772 ng*hr/mL and the median T max was 6 hours. Effect of Food INGREZZA Ingestion of a high-fat meal decreases valbenazine C max by approximately 47% and AUC by approximately 13%. [+]-α-HTBZ C max and AUC are unaffected. INGREZZA SPRINKLE Ingestion of a high-fat meal decreases valbenazine C max by approximately 15% and did not have an appreciable effect on AUC. [+]-α-HTBZ C max and AUC are unaffected.

Distribution The plasma protein binding of valbenazine and [+]-α-HTBZ are greater than 99% and approximately 64%, respectively. The mean steady state volume of distribution of valbenazine is 92 L. Nonclinical data in Long-Evans rats show that valbenazine can bind to melanin-containing structures of the eye such as the uveal tract.

The relevance of this observation to clinical use of INGREZZA or INGREZZA SPRINKLE is unknown. Elimination Valbenazine has a mean total plasma systemic clearance value of

7.2L/hr. Valbenazine and [+]-α-HTBZ have half-lives of 15 to 22 hours. Metabolism Valbenazine is extensively metabolized after oral administration by hydrolysis of the valine ester to form the active metabolite ([+]-α-HTBZ) and by oxidative metabolism, primarily by CYP3A4/5, to form mono-oxidized valbenazine and other minor metabolites. [+]-α-HTBZ appears to be further metabolized in part by CYP2D6.

Excretion Following the administration of a single 50-mg oral dose of radiolabeled C-valbenazine (i.e., ~63% of the recommended treatment dose), approximately 60% and 30% of the administered radioactivity was recovered in the urine and feces, respectively. Less than 2% was excreted as unchanged valbenazine or [+]-α-HTBZ in either urine or feces.

14.1Tardive Dyskinesia INGREZZA SPRINKLE The effectiveness of INGREZZA SPRINKLE has been established from adequate and well-controlled studies of INGREZZA for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia. Presented below is a display of the efficacy results of the adequate and well-controlled studies of INGREZZA in patients with tardive dyskinesia. INGREZZA A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of INGREZZA was conducted in patients with moderate to severe tardive dyskinesia as determined by clinical observation.

Patients had underlying schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or a mood disorder. Individuals at significant risk for suicidal or violent behavior and individuals with unstable psychiatric symptoms were excluded. The Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) was the primary efficacy measure for the assessment of tardive dyskinesia severity.

The AIMS is a 12-item scale; items 1 to 7 assess the severity of involuntary movements across body regions and these items were used in this study. Each of the 7 items was scored on a 0 to 4 scale, rated as: 0=no dyskinesia; 1=low amplitude, present during some but not most of the exam; 2=low amplitude and present during most of the exam (or moderate amplitude and present during some of the exam); 3=moderate amplitude and present during most of exam; or 4=maximal amplitude and present during most of exam. The AIMS dyskinesia total score (sum of items 1 to 7) could thus range from 0 to 28, with a decrease in score indicating improvement.

The AIMS was scored by central raters who interpreted the videos blinded to subject identification, treatment assignment, and visit number. The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean change from baseline in the AIMS dyskinesia total score at the end of Week 6. The change from baseline for two fixed doses of INGREZZA (40 mg or 80 mg) was compared to placebo.

At the end of Week 6, subjects initially assigned to placebo were re-randomized to receive INGREZZA 40 mg or 80 mg. Subjects originally randomized to INGREZZA continued INGREZZA at their randomized dose. Follow-up was continued through Week 48 on the assigned drug, followed by a 4-week period off-drug (subjects were not blind to withdrawal).

A total of 234 subjects were enrolled, with 29 (12%) discontinuing prior to completion of the placebo-controlled period. Mean age was 56 (range 26 to 84). Patients were 54% male and 46% female.

Patients were 57% Caucasian, 38% African-American, and 5% other. Concurrent diagnoses included schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder (66%) and mood disorder (34%). With respect to concurrent antipsychotic use, 70% of subjects were receiving atypical antipsychotics, 14% were receiving typical or combination antipsychotics, and 16% were not receiving antipsychotics.

Results are presented in Table 4 , with the distribution of responses shown in Figure 4 . The change from baseline in the AIMS total dyskinesia score in the 80 mg INGREZZA group was statistically significantly different from the change in the placebo group. Subgroup analyses by gender, age, racial subgroup, underlying psychiatric diagnostic category, and concomitant antipsychotic medication did not suggest any clear evidence of differential responsiveness.

The mean changes in the AIMS dyskinesia total score by visit are shown in Figure 5 . Among subjects remaining in the study at the end of the 48-week treatment (N=123 [52.6%]), following discontinuation of INGREZZA, the mean AIMS dyskinesia total score appeared to return toward baseline (there was no formal hypothesis testing for the change following discontinuation).

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

13.1Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Valbenazine did not increase tumors in rats treated orally for 91 weeks at 0.5, 1, and 2 mg/kg/day. These doses are <1 times (0.06, 0.1, and 0.24 times, respectively) the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Valbenazine did not increase tumors in hemizygous Tg.rasH2 mice treated orally for 26 weeks at 10, 30 and 75 mg/kg/day, which are 0.6, 1.9 and 4.6 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 .

Mutagenesis Valbenazine was not mutagenic in the in vitro bacterial reverse mutation test (Ames) or clastogenic in the in vitro mammalian chromosomal aberrations assay in human peripheral blood lymphocytes or in the in vivo rat bone marrow micronucleus assay. Impairment of Fertility In a fertility study, rats were treated orally with valbenazine at 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg/day prior to mating and through mating, for a minimum of 10 weeks (males) or through Day 7 of gestation (females). These doses are 0.1, 0.4, and 1.2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 , respectively.

Valbenazine delayed mating in both sexes, which led to lower number of pregnancies and disrupted estrous cyclicity at the high dose, 1.2 times the MRHD of 80 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Valbenazine had no effects on sperm parameters (motility, count, density) or on uterine parameters (corpora lutea, number of implants, viable implants, pre-implantation loss, early resorptions and post-implantation loss) at any dose.

Medicaid utilization & spend

📍 This exact package only: Medicaid data is reported per full 11-digit NDC — labeler, product and pack size — so every number here is for this package alone, not the drug overall. Other pack sizes report separately.
💊 Pharmacy benefit only: These are Medicaid outpatient pharmacy claims, billed by NDC. They exclude the medical benefit — clinic- or hospital-administered drugs billed under HCPCS J-codes — so drugs used mostly that way (e.g. Avastin, Lucentis, Keytruda) can look low or missing here. That’s expected, not an error.

Medicare Part D spend CMS · PART D · 2026 (Q1)

Medicare Part D (outpatient prescription) spending for Ingrezza Sprinkle — the program that covers self-administered drugs. 1 manufacturer.
⚠️ Drug-level data: CMS publishes Part D spending by drug, not by NDC — these figures combine every manufacturer, strength and package size sold under the name Ingrezza Sprinkle. That’s a different level of aggregation than the Medicaid card above, which is specific to this exact 11-digit NDC (pack size included), so the two aren’t directly comparable.

Questions about this listing

Why is there no price listed?
The pricing shown on our NDC pages comes from CMS NADAC, a voluntary survey of retail community pharmacy invoices. CMS does not publish a NADAC for every NDC — packages outside the retail survey (institutional and hospital products, bulk packages, discontinued items, and many OTC items) may never receive one. A missing price reflects the survey's scope, not this product's actual cost, and does not mean the product is free or unavailable.
Is the NDC printed on the package the same as the 11-digit billing NDC?
Yes, they identify this exact package in different formats. The form printed on the packaging and shown on DailyMed is the one the FDA registered. Insurance claims use a fixed 11-digit 5-4-2 format, so the short segment is padded with a leading zero and the dashes are dropped. The Identity section at the top of this page lists each form of this code.
Is this package still being marketed?
Yes, per the latest FDA NDC Directory data on this page: this package is listed as actively marketed, with no marketing end date reported by Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc.. Listing status can change — the directory data on this page refreshes weekly.
Who lists this product with the FDA?
Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. is the labeler of record for this NDC — the company under whose FDA-assigned code the package is listed. The labeler may be the manufacturer itself or a distributor marketing the product under its own code.
Do I need a prescription for this product?
This NDC is listed with FDA as a prescription product, so it is dispensed under a prescriber's order. Your pharmacist can tell you whether any over-the-counter forms of the same medication exist.
This page identifies an FDA-listed package (the NDC) and reports public regulatory and pricing data about the listing. It is reference information, not a medical recommendation — talk to your pharmacist or prescriber about your own medication.
Where does this data come from?
Listing facts (marketing category, packager status, marketing dates) from the FDA openFDA NDC Directory; label availability from DailyMed; pricing coverage from CMS NADAC; equivalence scope from the FDA Orange Book.
