Safety and Tolerability of Serdexmethylphenidate/Dexmethylphenidate Capsules in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: A 12-Month, Open-Label Safety Study.

ABSTRACT: Objective: Serdexmethylphenidate/dexmethylphenidate (SDX/d-MPH) is approved for the treatment of patients aged ≥6 years with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). A pivotal double-blind (DB) study of children aged 6-12 years with ADHD demonstrated efficacy for ADHD with good tolerability. In this study, we assessed the safety and tolerability of daily oral SDX/d-MPH for up to 1 year in children with ADHD. Methods: This was a dose-optimized, open-label safety study with SDX/d-MPH in children aged 6-12 years with ADHD that included subjects who successfully completed the DB study (rollover) and new subjects. The study consisted of a 30-day screening phase, a dose optimization phase for new subjects only, a 360-day treatment phase, and follow-up. Adverse
