How long would it take to get to my supply started at home?
Different hospitals have different processes and timelines which can affect how long it takes for your risdiplam supply to get through the hospital system. Times may vary for how long it takes for your prescription to be finalised.
They may also vary for how long it takes for your hospital paperwork to then be referred to and reach the Homecare Company, if one is being used.
Once the Homecare Company has received your prescription and registration form from the hospital, the Company will contact you to welcome you to the service. They will answer any questions you may have and agree delivery details with you.
