| Video Discription | Dr. Pagnani of Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates discusses two categories of controlled stimulant medications used to treat ADHD in adults: amphetamines and methylphenidates. Amphetamines (like adderall, vyvanse and dexedrine) and methylphenidates (like ritalin, concerta and focalin) both increase availability in the extraneuronal space of norepinephrine and dopamine by preventing their reuptake and also increasing their release. These medications have significant abuse potential and patients can develop physiological dependence and tolerance. They can also cause withdrawal, if taken regularly and decreased or stopped abruptly. There are various side effects, some potentially serious, and taking these medications must be under the direct supervision of a medical professional. Dr. Pagnani discusses that in his clinical experience, he's found that the amphetamine stimulants seem to have a higher likelihood of causing anxiety, irritability, insomnia, restless, tiredness or "crash," between doses or when the medication is wearing off. With that said, these medications may work better for individuals with significant hyperactivity as part of their illness, than the methylphenidates, and there are certainly many patients who tolerate them well. Methylphenidates are often preferred (when medication management with a controlled medication is warranted) for patients who's primary symptom of ADHD is difficulty with focus (mental, as opposed to physical hyperactivity). He discusses that he believes there's a lower abuse potential (although there certainly IS abuse potential) with methylphenidates than amphetamines. Dr. Pagnani is the founder and medical director of Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates, an Instructor at The Johns Hopkins Hospital for the Department of Psychiatry, he supervises psychiatric residents at Jefferson Hospital, he serves on the Young Professional Board of Uplift, the Center for Grieving Children and he maintains a private practice of Psychiatry in Philadelphia where he sees patients for one-time psychiatric evaluations and second opinions. He is a licensed physician and surgeon in NJ, PA, NY, MD, DE, FL and CA and can provide consultations to individuals via HIPAA compliant Telehealth visits living in these locations. Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates is a private practice of psychiatry consisting of about 25 psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners and psychotherapists with physical locations in Philadelphia and Paoli, PA and serving all of PA, NJ, NY and FL virtually via HIPAA compliant tele-psychiatry.
