Evaluation of dystonia in children and adolescents treated with atomoxetine within the Truven MarketScan database: a retrospective cohort study.

Objective: Atomoxetine is a non-stimulant drug indicated for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children aged ≥6 years, adolescents, and adults. In this retrospective cohort study, the incidence and risk of dystonia in children and adolescents treated with atomoxetine was compared to a propensity score-matched cohort of stimulant users.

Methods: Data between 1 January 2006 and 31 December 2014 from patients aged 6-17 years in the Truven Health Analytics MarketScan database were used to generate two cohorts of patients: (1) atomoxetine users and (2) stimulant (methylphenidates or amphetamines) users.

The Safety of Atomoxetine for the Treatment of Children and Adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: A Comprehensive Review of Over a Decade of Research.

Atomoxetine is a noradrenergic reuptake inhibitor prescribed for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) that first gained approval in the USA in 2002 and has been authorized in 97 countries worldwide. The aim of this paper is to comprehensively review publications that addressed one or more of seven major safety topics relevant to atomoxetine treatment of children and adolescents (aged ≥6 years) diagnosed with ADHD. While the review focuses on children and adolescents, publications in which data from patients aged >18 years and from 6 to 18 years were analyzed in the same dataset were included.

Time-to-onset and -resolution of adverse events before/after atomoxetine discontinuation in adult patients with ADHD.

Background: Adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder treated with atomoxetine were examined for time-to-onset and -resolution of common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and male sexual dysfunction, and for changes in blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) upon atomoxetine discontinuation.

Methods: 12-week open-label atomoxetine (40-100 mg/day) was followed by 12-week double-blind maintenance treatment (atomoxetine 80 or 100 mg/day). Responders were then randomized to atomoxetine (n = 266) or placebo (n = 258) for 25-week randomized withdrawal.

Risk of developing diabetes and dyslipidemia among adolescents with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia.

Unlabelled: The risks of developing diabetes and dyslipidemia among adolescents with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have not been well-characterized. This study was designed to characterize these risks and compare them among adolescents in the general population.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study used claims data from a large U.

Adverse events in healthy subjects exposed to single and multiple doses of LY2140023 monohydrate: pooled results from 10 phase 1 studies.

Ten phase 1 studies of LY2140023 monohydrate (LY2140023), an mGlu2/3 receptor agonist, in healthy male and female subjects were pooled to evaluate the adverse event profile. These studies included both single-dose (5-200 mg) and multiple-dose (20-160 mg 2 times a day) treatment groups. The percentage of subjects reporting treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were assessed in placebo and LY2140023 dose groups: 5 to 20, 40, 60 to 80, and more than 80 mg (120-200 mg).
