E84: ADHD: Non-Stimulants Part 2: Guanfacine (Intuniv), Clonidine (Kapvay, Onyda XR), TCAs, Bupropion, Solriamfetol, Centanafadine, and Saffron

from This Is Your Brain On Drugs Psychiatry Podcast

Today we will finish up the medications for ADHD with the remaining non-stimulant medications. There are actually quite a few non-stimulants with more than half being used off label. I will talk about the alpha 2 agonist medications guanfacine and clonidine, which are the FDA approved medications. Then, I will talk about off label options like TCAs and bupropion. Lastly, I will discuss two new medications on the horizon likely to be approved soon, solriamfetol and centanafadine. I will finish with saffron, which is one of the few herbal options which shows some promise.
