The variables included age, sex, cannabis use…
Open article record in new tab ↗Abstract Rationale : Methylphenidate is commonly prescribed to manage symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but like other stimulants it has limited effectiveness. Methylphenidate works by increasing the synaptic availability of dopamine and norepinephrine, resulting in stimulation of dopaminergic and adrenergic receptors. One hypothesis is that selective receptor targeting may be more effec…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by attentional deficits, hyperactivity and impulsivity that often persists into adulthood. While dysfunction of dopaminergic neurotransmitter systems has been observed, underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Current treatments with methylphenidate and amphetamines show limited long-term effectiv…

Background Methylphenidate (MPH), a central nervous system stimulant primarily prescribed for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), has seen increasing rates of misuse and abuse, particularly in patients with dual diagnosis (co-occurring psychiatric disorders and substance use disorders/SUDs). The heightened risk of dependence and adverse effects in these vulnerable populations warrants a systematic rev…
The use of prohibited performance enhancing substances (PESs) is well-documented among athletes, and includes student athletes in institutions of higher learning. In addition to using PESs to enhance sporting performance, they may be used for cognitive and academic achievement, specifically through the use of neuroactive substances. The latter in particular is under-researched and poses public health risks. Unders…
Open article record in new tab ↗Introduction Cannabidiol (CBD) is a widely utilized nonpsychoactive cannabinoid available as an over-the-counter supplement, a component of medical cannabis, and a prescriptive treatment of childhood epilepsies. In vitro studies suggest CBD may inhibit a number of drug-metabolizing enzymes, including carboxylesterase 1 (CES1). The aim of this study was to evaluate effect of CBD on the disposition of the CES1 subst…
BACKGROUND: Methylphenidate (MPH) is the most commonly used medication for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), but to date, there are neither consistent nor sufficient findings on conditions differentiating responsiveness to MPH response in ADHD. OBJECTIVE: To develop a predictive model of MPH response, using a longitudinal and naturalistic follow-up study, in a Spanish sample of children and adolesce…
