The over-whelming majority of new ADHD patients prescribed FocalinXR start out with the 5mg(kids) and 10mg(adults) strengths then increase as required from there.

The 5mg Focalin XR dose represented a branded value of about $73 million for Novartis in its annual 2014 sales which was approx 10% of all Focalin XR sales

Remember the two approved now are the most common

That's not the case - I'm going back 2 years in memory so I may be off somewhat, somewhere... but the 5 and 10 are beginning transitional doses and not that big in sales - the bulk of the sales is in the 15 which IPCI was first to file and 20... the 30 and 40 are about in the same ball park as the 5 and 10... so we presently have one of the 2 big sellers and one of the 4 not so big sellers on the market... and will be getting a crack at the other top seller and 3 other mediocre sellers.
