Abstract
In patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors like atomoxetine may show mild effectiveness in addressing both inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity. The relative efficacy of branded extended-release viloxazine (viloxazine ER) compared to generic atomoxetine remains unknown. This Adis Summary of Research summarizes the efficacy and tolerability of a voluntary switch from atomoxetine to viloxazine ER, prompted by adverse events or inadequate response, based on a retrospective chart review conducted in the USA. The switch improved ADHD symptoms and tolerability.
