Yet, data on discontinuing these medications, withdrawal symptoms, and strategies to switch between them are limited. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We searched PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov through June 1, 2024, to identify randomized controlled trials assessing antidepressant discontinuation in youth. We summarized pediatric pharmacokinetic data to inform tapering and cross-titration strategies for antidepressants and synthesized these data with reports of antidepressant withdrawal. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Our search identified 528 published articles, of which 28 were included. In addition, 19 records were obtained through other methods, with 14 included. The corpus of records included 13 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials (3026 patients), including SSRIs (K = 10), SNRIs (K = 4), and TCAs (K = 1), ranging from 4 to 35 weeks. Deprescribing antidepressants requires considering clinical status, treatment response, and, in cross-titration cases, the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of both medications. Antidepressant withdrawal symptoms are related to the pharmacokinetics of the medication, which vary across antidepressants and may include irritability, palpitations, anxiety, nausea, sweating, headaches, insomnia, paresthesia, and dizziness. These symptoms putatively involve changes in serotonin transporter expression and receptor sensitivity, impacting the serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine pathways. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Although approaches to deprescribing antidepressants in pediatric patients are frequently empirically guided, accumulating data related to the course of relapse and withdrawal symptoms, as well as the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of medications, should inform these approaches. Recommendations within this review support data-informed discussions of deprescribing-including when and how-that are critically important in the clinician-family-patient relationship.</p>","PeriodicalId":15277,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent psychopharmacology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142522027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have demonstrated beneficial effects at a group level but could not identify characteristics consistently associated with varying individual response. Thus, more individualized approaches are needed. Experimental studies have suggested that the neurobiological response to a single dose is indicative of longer term response. It is unclear whether this also applies to clinical measures. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We carried out a systematic review of RCTs testing the association between the clinical response to a single dose of stimulants and longer term improvement. Potentially suitable single-dose RCTs were identified from the MED-ADHD data set, the European ADHD Guidelines Group RCT Data set (https://med-adhd.org/), as updated on February 1, 2024. Quality assessment was carried out using the Cochrane Risk of Bias (RoB) 2.0 tool. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 63 single-dose RCTs (94% testing MPH, 85% in children) were identified. Among these, only a secondary analysis of an RCT tested the association between acute and longer term clinical response. This showed that the clinical improvement after a single dose of MPH was significantly associated with symptom improvement after a 4-week MPH treatment in 46 children (89% males) with ADHD. The risk of bias was rated as moderate. A further RCT used near-infrared spectroscopy, thus did not meet the inclusion criteria, and reported an association between brain changes under a single-dose and longer term clinical response in 22 children (82% males) with ADHD. The remaining RCTs only reported single-dose effects on neuropsychological, neuroimaging, or neurophysiological measures. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> This systematic review highlighted an important gap in the current knowledge. Investigating how acute and long-term response may be related can foster our understanding of stimulant mechanism of action and help develop stratification approaches for more tailored treatment strategies.
