Shownotes
Today we will finish up the medications for ADHD with the remaining non-stimulant medications. There are actually quite a few non-stimulants with more than half being used off label. I will talk about the alpha 2 agonist medications guanfacine and clonidine, which are the FDA approved medications. Then, I will talk about off label options like TCAs and bupropion. Lastly, I will discuss two new medications on the horizon likely to be approved soon, solriamfetol and centanafadine. I will finish with saffron, which is one of the few herbal options which shows some promise.
