New Warning for Attention Deficit
Drugs
The FDA ordered manufacturers to
warn patients that ADHD drugs carry risks, including sudden death.
WASHINGTON (Feb. 21, 2007) -
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today directed the
manufacturers of all drug products approved for the treatment of
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) to develop Patient
Medication Guides to alert patients to possible cardiovascular
risks and risks of adverse psychiatric symptoms associated with
the medicines, and to advise them of precautions that can be
taken.
ADHD is a condition that affects
approximately 3 percent to 7 percent of school-aged children and
approximately 4 percent of adults. The three main symptoms are
inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. People with ADHD may
have difficulty in school, troubled relationships with family and
peers, and low self-esteem.
An FDA review of reports of serious
cardiovascular adverse events in patients taking usual doses of
ADHD products revealed reports of sudden death in patients with
underlying serious heart problems or defects, and reports of
stroke and heart attack in adults with certain risk factors.
The alerts also cover psychiatric
problems, such as hearing voices, unfounded suspicions and manic
behavior, of which there is a slightly increased risk in patients
who take the drugs, the FDA said. The guides also tell patients
and their parents of precautions they can take to guard against
the risks.
FDA recommends that children,
adolescents, or adults who are being considered for treatment with
ADHD drug products work with their physician or other health care
professional to develop a treatment plan that includes a careful
health history and evaluation of current status, particularly for
cardiovascular and psychiatric problems (including assessment for
a family history of such problems).
The FDA announced its order applies
to 15 drugs:
· Adderall Tablets
· Adderall XR Extended-Release Capsules
· Concerta Extended-Release Tablets
· Daytrana Transdermal System
· Desoxyn Tablets
· Dexedrine Spansule Capsules and Tablets
· Focalin Tablets
· Focalin XR Extended-Release Capsules
· Metadate CD Extended-Release Capsules
· Methylin Oral Solution
· Methylin Chewable Tablets
· Ritalin Tablets
· Ritalin SR Sustained-Release Tablets
· Ritalin LA Extended-Release Capsules
· Strattera Capsules

FDA Warns About ADHD Drug Strattera
WASHINGTON (Sept. 29, 2005) - The Food and Drug Administration
warned doctors about reports of suicidal thinking in some
children and adolescents who are taking Strattera, a drug
used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
FDA said it "is advising health care providers and
caregivers that children and adolescents being treated with Strattera,
which also goes by the generic name Atomoxetine, should
be closely monitored for clinical worsening, as well as
agitation, irritability, suicidal thinking or behaviors, and
unusual changes in behavior, especially during the initial few
months of therapy or when the dose is changed."
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder affects as many as 7
percent of school-aged children and 4 percent of adults in the
United States.

Customer Review: I
am an application programmer and network administrator for
Mardox.com. I work very long hours and find myself losing track of
the smallest things in my day. After I started taking the Alert+
tablets from Biotrex, I found it easier to concentrate on my
tasks. I also did not lose my train of thought as easily when someone
interrupted me. Biotrex Alert+ Rocks. - Nelson
