Abstract
Objective: To examine the effects of triple beaded mixed amphetamine salts (TB MAS) on ADHD and executive dysfunction symptoms throughout the day in adults with DSM-5 ADHD.
Method: This was a 6 week, single-blind, placebo-lead in trial of TB MAS (12.5-37.5 mg/day); all participants received 2 weeks of single-blind placebo); one individual was a placebo responder and was discontinued. One of these 18 dropped after 1 week on 12.5 mg/day, while all others completed the trial and received 37.5 mg/day TB MAS.
Results: There were significant effects of TB MAS on all clinical measures, including investigator overall symptoms (AISRS); self-report overall (ASRS), time-sensitive ADHD (TASS) scores throughout the day, impairment (CGI) and executive function scores (BRIEF-A). TB MAS was generally well tolerated.
Conclusions: This study extends prior findings of TB MAS to adults with DSM-5 ADHD; it further re-validates findings of efficacy of TB MAS throughout the day.
