🧠 NEW ADHD TREATMENT

The FDA has approved SIMTRIYO® (centanafadine), a new medication for ADHD.

Unlike many traditional ADHD medications, SIMTRIYO® is a first-in-class norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin reuptake inhibitor (NDSRI) designed to target multiple pathways involved in attention, focus, and executive functioning.

Clinical studies have shown significant improvement in ADHD symptoms in adults and children 6 years and older (weighing at least 20 kg), with a well-studied safety profile.

Wondering if this medication may be right for you or your child? Talk with your psychiatric provider to determine the best treatment plan for your individual needs.

Did you know your genes can influence how your body responds to psychiatric medications? Genetic testing doesn’t diagnose mental illness, but it helps me understand how you metabolize certain medications, which may reduce the trial-and-error process. My goal is personalized care—finding the treatment that’s right for you, not just what’s commonly prescribed. Because your mental health care should be as unique as you are.

ADHD isn’t always about hyperactivity. 🧠

Did you know that Wellbutrin® (bupropion) is sometimes used off-label to help manage ADHD symptoms in certain individuals?

Bupropion works by increasing dopamine and norepinephrine, two brain chemicals involved in attention, motivation, and executive functioning.

It may be considered for people who:
✔️ Cannot tolerate stimulant medications
✔️ Have ADHD along with depression
✔️ Prefer a non-stimulant treatment option
✔️ Have certain medical reasons to avoid stimulants

While it can improve focus, concentration, and motivation for some people, it is not FDA-approved for ADHD, and it is not the right choice for everyone.

The best ADHD treatment is individualized and may include:
• Medication
• Behavioral therapy
• Sleep optimization
• Nutrition
• Exercise
• Executive functioning strategies

If you’re struggling with ADHD symptoms, a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation can help determine the treatment that’s right for you.

This post is for educational purposes only and should not replace medical advice. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or changing any medication.
