Note: this does not include subjects who have taken IR MPH for dose titration on a short-term basis (for example, £4 weeks) with an adequate response
In the Investigator's judgement, subject has failed to respond to more than 1 previous course(s) of MPH treatment. Failure to respond includes worsening of symptoms or no change/minimal improvement of symptoms.
Subject has previously been exposed to STRATTERA or to amphetamine therapy
Subject has previously demonstrated intolerable side effects to 1 MPH treatment which limited titration to acceptable efficacy or that required a decrease in dose resulting in unacceptable tolerability and/or efficacy
Subject has a current, controlled (requiring a restricted medication) or uncontrolled, comorbid psychiatric diagnosis with significant symptoms such as any severe comorbid Axis II disorder or severe Axis I disorder or other symptomatic manifestations, such as agitated states, marked anxiety, or tension that, in the opinion of the examining physician, will contraindicate treatment with SPD489 or STRATTERA or confound efficacy or safety assessments.
