Adolescents and young adults represent a particularly vulnerable subgroup because of the unique demands of their developmental stage. Despite the well-known efficacy of medication treatment for ADHD, there remains a notable concern regarding poor medication adherence in this population. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> This systematic literature review aimed to synthesize the existing empirical evidence on the outcomes and consequences of medication nonadherence among adolescents and young adults with ADHD. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> An extensive database search was conducted on September 26, 2022, with no time limits applied. The databases included Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, and PsycINFO. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Six studies met the inclusion criteria. Each study revealed that medication nonadherence was associated with a range of adverse outcomes, including decreased academic performance, heightened familial, and psychological stress, and an increased likelihood of substance use, pregnancy, obesity, and injury. Conversely, adherence led to improvements in at least one ADHD-related outcome. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Research exploring the consequences of suboptimal medication adherence in adolescents and young adults with ADHD is currently limited, and effective strategies to address this issue remain scarce. A thorough understanding of such consequences is critical for developing interventions aimed at improving medication adherence and mitigating the risk of adverse outcomes, especially considering the susceptibility of this population.</p>","PeriodicalId":15277,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent psychopharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"183-193"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11238837/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140857180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mental health decline among residents of geriatric facilities during the pandemic has been described (Ferro Uriguen et al., 2022). Our study aims to evaluate psychological effects of the pandemic on residents of a pediatric long-term care facility, a population comprised of medically complex children. To characterize this, we compared patterns of psychotropic medication use during the COVID-19 pandemic to those of the prepandemic period among residents of a 76-bed pediatric long-term care facility. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We conducted a retrospective study of psychotropic medication use from January 2019 to August 2022 using de-identified monthly facility medication refill data. Linear multivariable regression models were used to estimate the level and trends in the monthly rates of medication refills per 10,000 bed days among resident children before and after the pandemic onset. Six classes of psychotropic medications were analyzed including antipsychotics, antidepressants and anxiety medications, trazodone, clonidine, mood stabilizers, and gabapentin. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The pandemic onset was associated with a significant increase in the monthly prescribing rates of antidepressant and anxiety medications (20.83; 95% CI, 3.96-37.71; <i>p</i> = 0.017), mood stabilizers (10.44; 95% CI, 5.79-15.09; <i>p</i> < 0.001), and trazodone (-27.66; 95% CI, -40.44 to 14.88; <i>p</i> < 0.001) above those expected by prepandemic trends.

Antidepressant, anxiety medication, and gabapentin use increased throughout the study. Antidepressant and anxiety medication use surged early in the pandemic, but then continued growth at their prior rates of use. <b><i>Discussion:</i></b> Increased use of antidepressant and anxiety medications and trazodone suggests a possible impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on rates of anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, and agitation among children with severe intellectual and developmental disabilities living in long-term care.</p>","PeriodicalId":15277,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent psychopharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"210-213"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140859688","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}

There are several newer ADHD medication formulations, including a nonstimulant (Viloxazine extended release) and the first transdermal amphetamine patch approved to treat ADHD. These options offer some unique benefits to personalize treatment based on symptom profile, lifestyle, preferences, and response. Digital tools offer additional means to restructure environments for individuals with ADHD, reducing impairment and reliance on others. In addition, digital therapeutics enhance access, affordability, personalization, and feasibility of ADHD care, complementing or augmenting existing interventions. Trigeminal nerve stimulation emerges as a well-tolerated nonpharmacological, device-based treatment for pediatric ADHD, with initial trials indicating effect sizes comparable to nonstimulant medications. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> These innovations in ADHD care represent clinically significant new treatment options and opportunities for personalized care.

The study cohort comprised SGA-naive patients ages 5 to 19, continuously prescribed SGA for ≥90 days. CSWG was defined as a weight gain in BMI <i>z</i>-score >0.5.
