Qelbree is a nonstimulant treatment for ADHD in children aged 6-17. It’s a once-a-day pill that has been proven to help reduce symptoms of ADHD.
In clinical trials, the most common side effects were sleepiness, not feeling hungry, feeling tired, nausea, vomiting, trouble sleeping, and irritability.
Qelbree met the goal of 3 different clinical trials – a significant reduction in ADHD symptom scores in 6 weeks. For some patients, Qelbree reduced ADHD symptom scores as early as week 1*.
*In one study of children 6-11 years of age, ADHD symptom score reductions were statistically significant for 100 mg and 200 mg doses, beginning at week 1. In a second study of adolescents 12-17 years of age, ADHD symptom score reductions were statistically significant for 400 mg, beginning at week 2.
In clinical studies, Qelbree was proven to help reduce ADHD symptoms. Reducing the impact of those symptoms can help improve your child’s difficult behavior related to ADHD.
