Abstrakt: Objectives. To study impulsivity in adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and to evaluate the efficacy of Noofen (500 mg/day for 45 days) in the treatment of this pathology. Materials and methods. The results of clinical, psychological, and psychophysiological studies of 60 adolescents aged 12-15 years with ADHD are presented. The clinical pictures of illness and data from psychophysiological studies in ADHD with a predominance of hyperactivity (ADHD-H) and the combined type of illness (ADHD-C) were compared. Results and conclusions. Significantly higher levels of impulsivity and anxiety were found in children with ADHD-H. Treatment with Noofen was shown to have high clinical efficacy: status improved in 63.3% of patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
