Objective: To examine (1) moderating effects of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) on attention-cleficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) treatment response and (2) responses of ODD symptoms to atornoxetine. Method: Children and adolescents (ages 8-18) with ADHD were treated for approximately 8 weeks with placebo or atornoxetine (fixed dosing: 0.5, 1.2, or 1.8 mg/kg/day, b.i.d.) under randomized, double-blind conditions. Among patients with lifetime diagnostic information (n = 293), 39% were diagnosed with comorbid ODD and 61 % were not. Treatment-group differences and differences between patients with and without comorbid ODD were examined post hoc for changes on the Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale IV-Parent version, investigator-administered and -scored; Conners' Parent Rating Scale-Revised Short Form; Clinical Global Impressions Severity of ADHD Scale; and the parent-rated Child Health Questionnaire. Results: Youths with ADHD and comorbid ODD showed statistically significant improvement in ADHD, ODD, and quality-of-life measures. Treatment response was similar in youths with and without ODD, except that the comorbid group showed improvement compared with placebo at 1.8 mg/kg/day but not 1.2 mg/kg/day. In contrast, youths without ODD showed improvement at 1.2 mg/kg/day and no incremental benefit at 1.8 mg/kg/day. Conclusions: Atomoxetine treatment improves ADHD and ODD symptoms in youths with ADHD and ODD, although the comorbid group may require higher doses. J. Am. Acad. ChildAdolesc.
