Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of atomoxetine hydrochloride for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHID) combined with Tourette syndrome (TS).Methods Twenty-six cases of children with ADHD combined with TS were firstly diagnosed American Psychiatric Association Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fourth edition (DSM-Ⅳ) of ADHD and TS were treated with atomoxetine.The symptoms were improved and conditions were assessed based on the fourth version of ADHD parent rating scale and the severity of Yale comprehensive pumping quantity during pre-treatment,the 2nd,4th,6th and the 8 week of therapeutic courses,respectively.The adverse reaction was observed.Results 1.Compared with pre-treatment,attention deficit scores after treatment were statistically different (t =8.41,9.97,all P ＜ 0.05) in the 6th,8th week of therapeutic courses;hyperactivity /imnpulsivity scores were statistically different (Z =-4.39,-4.47,-4.46,all P ＜0.05) in the 4th,6th,8th week; Motor tics scores were statistically different (t =18.30,18.67,20.32,all P ＜ 0.05) in the 4th,6th,8th week; The vocal tic score:the second weeks already had statistically different(t =5.45,P ＜ 0.05); And the impaired function score were statistical significance (Z =-3.95,-3.94,all P ＜ 0.05) at the 6th and 8th week.2.The effective rate of ADHD and TS was 7.69％ and 15.38％,respectively in the 2td week.The curative effect had no statistical significance (x2 =0.188,P ＞0.05).But at the tourth week of assessment,and the rates of curative effect were respectively 19.23％ and 46.15 ％.It had statistical significance (x2 =3.923,P ＜ 0.05).In the 6th,8th weeks,there was no significant difference between the 2 efficiency (x2 =0.083,0.103,all P ＞0.05).3.During the treatment,no severe adverse reaction had appeared.Conclusions Atomoxetine in ADHD comorbid TS had exact curative effect and no obvious adverse reactions.In the treatment of ADHD,hyperactivity / impulsivity effect is better than the attention deficit.In the treatment of TS,vocal tics onset is better than the motor tics.In comparison of ADHD with TS,TS symptoms improve faster than ADHD in the onset,but the final effect is quite.
