Clinical Management of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue highlights the need to further explore the clinical and psychopathological aspects of adult patients with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) undergoing pharmacological treatment with opioid agonists. Currently, there are significant challenges in the pharmacological management and clinical care of these patients within Italian Addiction Services. Moreover, individuals with ADHD who access addiction services are often not properly diagnosed and, as a result, do not receive appropriate pharmacological treatment.

The aim of this work is to improve clinical practice and enhance current knowledge regarding adult ADHD patients receiving specific opioid dependence therapies with racemic methadone, who subsequently transition to levomethadone.
