Clinical Trial Results
How we ran the studies:
Qelbree was studied in three clinical trials involving boys and girls ages 6-17 who had been diagnosed with ADHD.
The studies measured what kind of changes in ADHD symptoms these children experienced over the course of the six- to eight-week clinical trials. They measured the frequency and severity of ADHD symptoms, including inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
Qelbree showed significant reduction in symptoms compared to placebo.
Qelbree was also consistently proven to be effective and safe in multiple clinical studies in over 800 patients with a once-a-day convenient dose.

Safety profile
Qelbree is proven to be safe*, with manageable side effects
In clinical trials, Qelbree was consistently proven to be a safe and effective treatment for ADHD, with a low incidence of side effects.
*Important: Monitor your child for mood or behavior changes. Your child’s doctor may also monitor for changes in blood pressure and heart rate.
The majority of these side effects did not cause children to stop treatment with Qelbree.
Qelbree is not a controlled substance and there was no evidence of abuse.
Sometimes parents consider a planned break or "drug holiday" from a medication due to side effects. This is a conversation you should have with your child and with their doctor before considering a break.
Qelbree is unlikely to have any negative interactions with stimulants like methylphenidate and amphetamine.
