Commercial insurance, also known as private insurance, is coverage that you get from your employer or buy directly from insurance companies through the marketplace. To learn some common terms you may come across with a commercial insurance policy, download the Understanding Commercial Insurance and Medicare Terms resource.
Under commercial insurance, coverage for medications, including NORTHERA, varies from plan to plan. Many plans have networks of participating pharmacies, and you generally will pay less for prescriptions filled at one of these “in-network” pharmacies. The information provided here is for your information only. Contact your insurer for information regarding your coverage.

If you have commercial insurance, contact your insurer for specific details regarding your coverage.
Use
NORTHERA (droxidopa) is a prescription medication used to reduce dizziness, lightheadedness, or the “feeling that you are about to black out” in adults who experience a significant drop in blood pressure when changing positions or standing (called symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH)) and who have one of the following:
Effectiveness beyond 2 weeks of treatment has not been established, and your doctor will decide if you should continue taking NORTHERA.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: SUPINE HYPERTENSION (this is high blood pressure while lying down)
When lying down, elevating the head and upper body lowers the risk of high blood pressure. Check your blood pressure in this position prior to starting and during NORTHERA treatment. If you experience high blood pressure, talk to your doctor about your NORTHERA treatment.
