Dikkat eksikliği ve hiperaktivite bozukluğu tanılı çocuk ve ergenlerde aşırı doz metilfenidat alımına bağlı hiperhidrozis bildirilen birkaç vaka örneği vardır. Bu yazımızda dikkat eksikliği ve hiperaktivite bozukluğunu tedavi için uzun etkili metilfenidat (Concerta®) kullanımı sonrasında hiperhidrozis yan etkisi görülen bir hastayı sunmaktayız.
Methylphenidate-Induced Hyperhidrosis in an Adolescent Boy
Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) is a rarely reported side effect of methylphenidate treatment in young subjects with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. There are few reports of hyperhidrosis associated with methylphenidate overdose in children and adolescents with diagnosis of ADHD. Here we report a case of an adolescent boy who developed hyperhidrosis after taking osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system methylphenidate (Concerta®) for his attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
