SPECIAL INFORMATION
ADHD and major depression are common ailments throughout life, and these two disorders may occur at the same time. In a study conducted at Case Western Reserve University, seven children with ADHD and major depression were examined. For all 11 patients, symptoms of major depression appeared to respond well to either Prozac or Zoloft. Using fluoxetine or this drug daily, there was no adverse behavioral effects. However, no improvement in ADHD symptoms was observed in any patient during the administration of Prozac or Zoloft when used alone. Combination treatment with a psychostimulant seemed necessary for chronic ADHD symptoms to be effectively addressed. No patient developed suicide impulses, increased aggressiveness, mania, or other problematic side effects. Researchers concluded that this combination therapy was well tolerated and appeared to be effective in treating both ADHD and depressive symptoms. According to the study, the results suggest that add-on treatment with psychostimulants might be a safe and effective intervention for children treated with fluoxetine or sertraline who have persistent ADHD symptoms.
