Abstract

주의력결핍 과잉행동장애는 미국에서 약 200만 명의 어린이에게 나타나는 심각한 만성 신경행동학적 장애이다. 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애 치료의 중심은 약물요법이다. 그러나 현재 환자의 약 30%는 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애를 적응증으로 갖도록 허가된 의약품들을 사용해도 적절한 치료효과를 얻지 못하고 있는 상황이다. Modafinil은 methylphenidate나 amphetamines와 같은 각성제와는 다른 약리학적 기전으로 중추신경계를 항진시킨다. 본 연구는 modafinil의 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애 치료효과에 대한 최신 지견을 얻고자, 1990년부터 2010년 3월까지 MEDLINE에 등재된 논문을 ADHD와 Modafinil이라는 MeSH terms로 검색하여 추출한 자료 중에서 대조군이 사용된 무작위 배정 및 이중맹검 임상연구 사례만을 선별하여 임상적 유용성을 평가하였다. 현재 modafinil은 주의력결핍 과잉행동 장애 치료제로 허가된 의약품은 아니지만 최근 여러 국가에서 시행된 연구들은 modafinil이 안전하고 효과적인 주의력결핍 과잉행동장애 치료제일 수 있다는 결과를 보여주고 있다.
