| Study summary: |
|
This study is designed to determine which of two study medications works best for a given set of AD/HD symptoms (for example; inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity) in children. Each study medication is approved for the treatment of AD/HD by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA). All participants will be evaluated for AD/HD as well as other psychological conditions, such as depression or anxiety, as part of their assessment. If it is determined that AD/HD is the primary diagnosis, participants will have the opportunity to try each study medication for up to 6 weeks under close clinical observation during weekly visits. Once the optimal dose level and treatment is determined, the participant can continue to receive study medication for three months at no cost. At the end of the study, you will receive a summary of your child’s progress as well as an appropriate referral for continuing treatment. |
