A Phase 3 interventional study of Atomoxetine in Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), sponsored by University of Oklahoma. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 4 Years to 11 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-07-02.
Sponsored by University of Oklahoma · Phase 3, Interventional, and Treatment
Determine if atomoxetine is safe and well tolerated by children with fetal alcohol syndrome.
Abnormalities of attention, function, and activity level in children exposed to alcohol in utero share similarities and differences to children who do not have alcohol exposure. Previous psychological studies have examined either core attention deficit hyperactivity (ADHD) symptoms of hyperactivity, inattention, and impulsivity or hypothesized neuropsychological differences in children with fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and ADHD. Atomoxetine Hydrochloride is a non-stimulant medication used to treat ADHD. This study will determine if atomoxetine HCL significantly reduces symptoms of ADD/ADHD in children with fetal alcohol exposure.
