Background: Randomized controlled trials have shown that dexamphetamine sulfate (DEX) is efficacious in the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents; however, data on the effectiveness and safety of DEX in routine practice are scarce. Objective: This study investigated the long-term effectiveness and safety of Attentin® (immediate-release DEX) in children and adolescents with ADHD in routine practice. Methods: ATTENTION was a multicenter, prospective, observational, non-interventional study that enrolled pediatric patients with ADHD (aged 6-17 years) with a clinically inadequate response to previous methylphenidate (MPH) treatment. Patients were assessed at baseline and two follow-up visits after approx. 6 and 12 months of DEX treatment. The primary endpoint was the investigator-rated ADHD rating scale IV (ADHD-RS-IV) total score change from baseline to the first follow-up visit. Results: The study enrolled 140 patients (mean age: 11.2 years). Significant reductions in ADHD-RS-IV total scores were observed in the titration phase and were maintained up to the second follow-up visit. The mean ADHD-RS-IV total score change from baseline to the first follow-up visit was -11.9 (27.1 vs. 13.4, p < .001). Beneficial effects of DEX were observed on both ADHD-RS-IV subscales (‘hyperactivity/impulsivity’ and ‘inattention’) and in both children and adolescents. Clinical response, defined as a reduction in the ADHD-RS-IV total score of at least 30% at the first follow-up visit, was observed in 78.1% of patients. Patients reported an average onset of action of 36.2 minutes and an average duration of action of 6.5 hours after intake of the first dose of DEX in the morning. DEX was well tolerated. Small significant increases in mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to baseline were observed. Conclusions: Attentin® is an effective and well-tolerated long-term treatment for pediatric ADHD patients with a clinically inadequate response to previous MPH treatment.
