Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder | Current Treatment: Physician Insights | Pediatric ADHD | US | 2019

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common childhood condition that can continue through adolescence and into adulthood. Treatment options include a mix of stimulants (e.g., methylphenidates, amphetamines) and nonstimulants (e.g., dopaminergic/noradrenergic agents, adrenergic receptor agonists). Despite many available—and largely efficacious—pharmacological treatments, a large proportion of patients have inadequate control of their ADHD symptoms, including over the long term. Overall, treatment is highly individualized and complex; thus, understanding drivers of treatment decision-making is key for current players in this market to help optimize uptake of their agents and for new players entering this large yet generic market.

  • What factors help U.S. physicians determine if a pediatric ADHD patient is fit for prescription drug treatment? What are the drivers and constraints influencing physicians’ treatment decisions for pediatric ADHD? How are nonpharmacological approaches used?

  • To what extent is polypharmacy prescribed for pediatric ADHD, and what are physicians’ preferred drug combinations?
  • How has use of key therapies changed in the past year, and what changes do physicians expect in their prescribing of these drugs in one year?
  • How do Daytrana (Noven), Mydayis (Shire), and Vyvanse (Shire) compete in the generics-heavy pediatric ADHDtherapy market? What drivers and constraints will aid or restrict their use?
