Beyond Stimulants: New Frontiers in ADHD Treatment

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a prevalent condition that often requires medication to manage symptoms. This systematic review explores the growing field of non-stimulant treatments for ADHD, examining randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of novel compounds targeting various biological pathways. The authors found numerous promising candidates, including Dasotraline, Viloxazine, Centanafadine, OPC-64005, Fasoracetam, Metadoxine, Vortioxetine, Tipepidine Hibenzate, Oxytocin, Sativex, Mazindol, and Molindone. While these agents may not surpass stimulants in terms of overall efficacy, they offer potential advantages in tolerability and may prove particularly beneficial for specific subgroups of patients.
