Thanks to ACAMH as I discuss ADHD and Tic Disorders in another In Conversation podcast this time joined by Professor Chris Hollis. Chris is leading a research team working on a research project about ADHD medication and Tics. The focus of this podcast is on this research project, called The SATURN Trial. Discussion points include: Definition of Tics and ADHD. Potential challenges of differentiating between tics from a Tic Disorder, such as Tourette Syndrome, from other movements from conditions such as chorea dystonia myoclonus. Differentiating between stimming movements and tics. The effectiveness of non-stimulant medication in treating the symptoms of ADHD. Impact of the ongoing shortage of ADHD medication on patients. Why people should be encouraged to get involved in this research and the clinical implications from this research. To listen
