Effective ADHD Symptom Control

Clinical study demonstrated continuous 12-hour symptom control*

The study was performed in a laboratory classroom setting. Teachers and raters used a rating scale (SKAMP) to evaluate the efficacy of Quillivant XR on attention and behavior in children with ADHD ages 6 to 12 when compared to children taking a sugar syrup.*

Children taking Quillivant XR showed improved attention and behavior from 45 minutes to 12 hours after taking when compared with those children who took sugar syrup.*
