[VIRTUAL] The Effects of Psilocybin on Binge-Like Feeding Behaviour in Rats () - Sep 30, 2020 - Abstract #ACNP2020ACNP_64; These results suggest that psilocybin treatment is able to modulate hyperphagia associated with access to a highly palatable food in rats. Future work should consider the involvement of different serotonin receptor subtypes in the expression of this response.

Journal: Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Due to Combined Use of Phentermine and Lisdexamfetamine. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 14, 2020 Caution with the use of sympathomimetic medications in post-menopausal women appears warranted. This is the first case report in the published English literature of medication-induced Takotsubo cardiomyopathy due to combination use of lisdexamfetamine and phentermine.This provides new information about iatrogenic causes of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.Caution is indicated in the use of such medications, particularly in post-menopausal women, who are at higher risk.

Journal: Binge eating disorder revisited: what's new, what's different, what's next. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 4, 2020 Psychological treatments such as cognitive behavioral interventions have been recommended as first line and are supported by meta-analytic reviews; however, access to such treatments may be limited because of local availability and/or cost, and these treatments generally lead to little to no weight loss, although successfully eliminating binge eating can protect against future weight gain. Routine medication treatments for anxiety and depression do not necessarily ameliorate the symptoms of BED, but there are approved and emerging medication options, lisdexamfetamine and dasotraline, respectively, that specifically address the core drivers behind binge eating, namely obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors regarding food, resulting in marked decreases in binge eating behaviors as well as weight loss.

Neurobiological Basis of Reinforcement-Based Decision Making in Adults With ADHD Treated With Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate (Americas Hall I & II) - Apr 17, 2020 - Abstract #SOBP2020SOBP_1490; The current study extends early reports on the brain effects of LDX by showing that LDX related increase of the responsiveness of the brain reward system is also positively related to symptom improvement. As such, these results support the hypothesis that stimulant treatment of ADHD can restore balance to dysfunction (e.g. hypoactivation) within motivation-reward related brain circuitry.

[VIRTUAL] PRESCRIPTION DRUG MONITORING PROGRAM QUERYING RATES FOR PRESCRIPTION STIMULANTS () - Mar 8, 2020 - Abstract #ISPOR2020ISPOR_1422; This cross-sectional study of prescription stimulants included patients of all ages who received at least one prescription for any of the following drug ingredients between October 1st, 2016 and December 31st, 2018: mixed amphetamine salts, amphetamine, methylphenidate, dextroamphetamine, dexmethylphenidate, or lisdexamfetamine. Despite the increased prevalence of stimulant misuse and diversion, healthcare providers in Texas still squander the potential of the PMP by not querying these medications in a consistent manner prior to prescribing or dispensing.
