Active clinical trials for "Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity"

The purpose of this study is to determine if atomoxetine (a common brand name is Strattera), a medicine that is used for treating older children with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), is also safe and helpful for ADHD problems in young children. While atomoxetine is not approved by the FDA for use in children younger than 6 years, the FDA has given permission to study this drug in this age group.

This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of methylphenidate in treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children with both attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and Tourette syndrome.

The purpose of the study is to investigate if NS2359 is effective in the treatment of ADHD in adult patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and effectiveness of methylphenidate in treatment of ADHD in Swedish adult male prison inmates diagnosed with ADHD.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a medication skin patch called Methylphenidate Transdermal System (MTS). We will compare the MTS medicated patch to a placebo patch. We want to find out how well it treats ADHD during the early morning hours before a child leaves for school or summertime routines.

This study will look at the effectiveness of Methylphenidate Transdermal System (MTS) in treating adult ADHD. MTS has received FDA approval for childhood ADHD but this is the first trial for adult ADHD. Subjects will experience two screening visits and one baseline visit. Those who meet admission criteria will enter the double-blind phase. This will involve two 4-week treatment periods one of which will involve the use of MTS and the other a placebo patch. Subjects who complete the double-blind phase will be allowed to enter a 180-day, open-label MTS phase designed to assess long-term effects.

This study will evaluate if Ritalin LA™ is safe and effective for ADHD treatment in 4-to-5-year olds.

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of atomoxetine in reducing the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in young children.

This research is being done to evaluate if NRP104 is a safe drug. The other purpose is to learn if NRP104 produces a high and any other effects like amphetamine and other stimulant drugs that are abused. This information will give some indication if NRP104 can be abused. NRP104 is an investigational drug. This means that it has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Healthy people, between the ages of 18 and 55 with histories of substance abuse that include stimulant drugs, may join. Amphetamines are drugs that are used most often to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, to treat narcolepsy (excessive sleepiness) and for weight loss.

This is a parallel design, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, 38-week treatment trial of atomoxetine in adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) who are currently living in a family situation with at least one child. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of atomoxetine compared to placebo in the reduction of ADHD symptoms over 12 and 24 weeks of blinded treatment.
