Brand New & Exclusive MDS from Alturix
PSUK launched a brand new and exclusive MDS with Alturix on their Ceyesto (Melatonin) range on
1 September.
st
As a PSUK member you now have access to a 20% MDS rebate on Ceyesto 3mg Tablets and Ceyesto
1mg/ml Oral Solution.

Ceyesto 3mg Tablets are profitable if you prescribe generically or by brand name. But if you were to prescribe
generically you would also save the NHS £4.51 per pack in reimbursement.

However, we do advise that if members want to take advantage of the MDS on the Ceyesto Oral Solution,
that they prescribe by brand to avoid losing money.

The table below highlights the brands and generics of Melatonin 3mg Tablets and Oral Solution that
are currently available. As this table includes generics, please remember APM prices may change
throughout the month.
