  • Title: Methylphenidate in treatment of adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
    Author: Biederman J, Spencer T.
    Journal: J Atten Disord; 2002; 6 Suppl 1():S101-7. PubMed ID: 12685524.
    Abstract:
    Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can persist into adulthood with a continuation of the pattern of childhood psychopathology, cognition and functioning. Adult comorbidities include substance use disorders, antisocial personality disorder, anxiety, and depression. Studies have shown that as in children, methylphenidate treatment for adults can lead to a robust, dose-dependent improvement in ADHD symptoms. Future research is needed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term treatment with methylphenidate (MPH).
