Validation of L-Type Calcium Channel Blocker Amlodipine as a Novel ADHD Treatment through Cross-Species Analysis, Drug-Target Mendelian Randomization, and clinical evidence from medical records

2024-05-31

Abstract excerpt

ADHD is a chronic neurodevelopmental disorder which significantly affects life outcomes. First-line treatments carry the risk of adverse side effects and present a high abuse potential, coupled with a 25% rate of non-response, necessitating novel treatments.
