objectives: the aim of this randomized clinical trial was to assess the efficacy of stimdate compared to ritalin in the treatment of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd). method: sixty four subjects (45 boys and 15 girls) aged 5-13 who were diagnosed with adhd based on (dsm-iv-tr) criteria were selected for this study. the subjects were randomly assigned to two groups: ...
For parents with children with Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD), neurofeedback represents an exciting new alternative to treatment with medication. Powerful psycho-stimulant drugs such as Ritalin have side-effects and do not work on changing the underlying causes of the condition. Neurofeedback therapy focuses on changing the underlying symptoms by re-training the brain. Ne...
OBJECTIVE There is evidence to show an increase in use of stimulant substances among university students. This study is a qualitative assessment of the existing situation and the underlying reasons for stimulant use among the students of Tehran University of Medical Sciences in 2006. METHODS Three qualitative methods have been used: focus group discussions with 7 groups (60 individuals) consi...
BACKGROUND The neural consequences of early-life exposure to methylphenidate (MPH; Ritalin) are of great interest given the widespread, and sometimes inappropriate, use in children. Here we examine the impact of juvenile MPH exposure on adult hippocampal neurogenesis. METHODS Rats received MPH (2.0 mg/kg, intraperitoneal, twice daily) or saline (SAL) during preadolescence (postnatal days 20-3...
As part of a program to develop medications which can block the binding of cocaine to the dopamine transporter, yet spare dopamine uptake, a series of aromatic ring-substituted methylphenidate derivatives was synthesized and tested for inhibitory potency in [3H]WIN 35,428 binding and [3H]dopamine uptake assays using rat striatal tissue. Synthesis was accomplished by alkylation of 2-bromopyridin...
Repetitive exposure to methylphenidate (MPD) elicits sensitization to its locomotor effects. Drugs that affect the GABA system may modify adaptations to drug exposure. Therefore, we have examined the effect of sodium valproate, which enhances GABA function, on the development of sensitization to MPD using an automated, computerized animal activity monitoring system to record each rat's motor ac...
Methylphenidate (Ritalin) is the most commonly prescribed psychoactive drug for juveniles and adolescents. Used to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and for cognitive enhancement in healthy individuals, it has been regarded as a relatively safe medication for the past several decades. However, a thorough review of the literature reveals that the age-dependent activities of t...
INTRODUCTION Since Ritalin (methylphenidate immediate-release or MPH IR) was first marketed in 1955, it has been a mainstay of treatment for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). AREAS COVERED The postulated mechanism of action, adverse events and efficacy of MPH are examined. MPH formulations that are currently on the market in the United States and those that will soon be availab...
OBJECTIVES To explore the illicit use of specific prescription stimulants among college students and add to our understanding of reasons (motives) and routes of administration associated with illicit use of these drugs. METHODS A random sample of 4580 college students self-administered a Web-based survey. The survey contained a variety of items pertaining to the illicit use of prescription st...
