Otsuka Pharmaceutical, Co. Ltd. (Otsuka) announce today that Otsuka Precision Health, Inc. (OPH) and Click Therapeutics, Inc., (Click) have launched Rejoyn™. Rejoyn was cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in March 2024 and is the first-and-only prescription digital therapeutic for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) symptoms as an adjunct to clinician-managed outpatient care for adult patients with MDD age 22 years and older who are on antidepressant medication.
Patients can obtain a prescription for Rejoyn from their current provider or from another provider via a virtual consultation from Wheel Health, Inc., whose platform can be accessed from a link on the Rejoyn website. BlinkRx is the exclusive pharmacy provider for Rejoyn and will digitally dispense access codes for Rejoyn to prescribed patients. As a digital treatment, Rejoyn can then be downloaded from mobile application stores and used at a place and time of patients' choosing. In an effort to facilitate broad access, the six-week Rejoyn treatment program is available for a limited time at a discounted price of $50 for patients. At launch, Rejoyn will be priced for payors at $200. Coverage from health insurers is expected to be forthcoming.
"We are proud to bring Rejoyn, the first-and-only FDA-cleared digital treatment for MDD symptoms, to the market," said Sanket Shah, president of Otsuka Precision Health.
