methylphenidate and Dermatitis Medicamentosa

methylphenidate has been researched along with Dermatitis Medicamentosa in 8 studies

Methylphenidate: A central nervous system stimulant used most commonly in the treatment of ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER in children and for NARCOLEPSY. Its mechanisms appear to be similar to those of DEXTROAMPHETAMINE. The d-isomer of this drug is referred to as DEXMETHYLPHENIDATE HYDROCHLORIDE.
methylphenidate : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of the two threo isomers of methyl phenyl(piperidin-2-yl)acetate. A central stimulant and indirect-acting sympathomimetic, is used (generally as the hydrochloride salt) in the treatment of hyperactivity disorders in children and for the treatment of narcolepsy.
methyl phenyl(piperidin-2-yl)acetate : A amino acid ester that is methyl phenylacetate in which one of the hydrogens alpha to the carbonyl group is replaced by a piperidin-2-yl group.

Trial Outcomes

Number of Participants With Improvement on Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) Scores

Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) consists of a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Improvement is defined as a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the scale. (NCT00501293)
Timeframe: 6 months

InterventionParticipants (Number)
Antecedent Methylphenidate Transdermal System (MTS)81
Antecedent Placebo39

Number of Participants With Improvement on Parent Global Assessment (PGA) Scores.

Parent Global Assessment (PGA) consists of a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Improvement is defined as a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the scale. (NCT00501293)
Timeframe: 6 months

InterventionParticipants (Number)
Antecedent Methylphenidate Transdermal System (MTS)69
Antecedent Placebo31

Change From Baseline in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-fourth Edition (ADHD-RS-IV) Scores at 6 Months

The ADHD-RS-IV consists of 18 items scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (no symptoms) to 3 (severe symptoms) with total score ranging from 0 to 54. (NCT00501293)

Change From Baseline in Conner's Parent Rating Scale-revised Short Version (CPRS-R) at 6 Months

The Conner's Parent rating Scale-revised short version (CPRS-R) consists of 27 questions graded on a scale from 0 (not true at all) to 3 (very much true) with a total score ranging from 0 to 81. Higher scores are indicative of increased ADHD. This scale allows parents to respond on the basis of the child's behavior and help assess ADHD and evaluate problem behavior. (NCT00501293)

Change From Baseline in Youth Quality of Life-research Version (YQOL-R) Total Score at 6 Months

The Youth Quality of Life-research version (YQOL-R) is a validated 56-item generic instrument for comparing quality of life of adolescents across condition groups that scores each question on a scale from 0 (never) to 4 (very often). The YQOL scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale for easy interpretability. Higher scores indicate better quality of life. (NCT00501293)

Electrocardiogram Results (QTcF Interval)

QTcF is the QT interval using Fridericia's correction formula. QT interval is a measure of time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave and is dependent on the heart rate(e.g., the faster the heart rate, the shorter the QT interval). The QT interval has to be corrected in order to aid interpretation. (NCT00501293)
