New data on ADHD study drug NS2359

NS2359 is a mixed monoamine reuptake inhibitor. A study looked at the efficacy of NS2359 versus placebo in a double-blind randomized trial.

There was no statistical difference in the total ADHD-RS scale score between those taking NS2359 and placebo. However, when looking at the inattentive type of ADHD, 41% of those who took NS2359 had an improvement, compared with 7% of the control group.
