Reboxitin for ADHD

Previous page Next page

Reboxitine is a noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, as well as a weak serotonin reuptake inhibitor.

Trade names: Edronax (D, CH, A), Solcenx (D)

The active ingredient reboxitine is a noradrenergic drug which, according to individual reports, can be effective for ADHD. As an antidepressant, as it was actually intended to be, it was probably quite unsuccessful.

The updated European consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD (2018) names reboxitine as a possible alternative to atomoxetine for ADHD.1

There is evidence that reboxitine is effective for ADHD. However, there are only a few controlled studies and reboxitine could be used primarily in adults without comorbidities.23

In Germany, Reboxitin is not reimbursed by health insurance companies.
