`Date Received: October 17. WW
`'
`l. Material Reviewed
`
`'
`
`The Ollice oi Health Attila has asked our Division to comment upon this Medical
`Letter draft article. "Adderail and other drugs for attention daticit hyperactivity disorder.”
`Addernii is a combination amphetamine product (see above) which was lormerly called
`Obetrol. (i understand that this‘vproduct may be subject to a compliance action; apparently it
`is being marketed without an approved NDA. This lnlormatien. however. is still confidential.)
`The draft article begins With a reference to the “vigorous" promotion at Adderati, and
`concludes by stating that no litdrature studies are available to support the solely and efficacy
`oi the medication. or the claim that its eilect lasts throughout the school day alter one dose.
`The body oi the article reviews the pharmacotharapy tor attention deiiclt hyperactivity
`disorder (ADHD). and presents a balanced although brlel summary oi important clinical
`considerations. The informationz'on dosing. pharmacotrlnetlcs and adverse eiiects tor the
`most part agrees with what is commonly cited in the titanium or described in the labeling tor
`the psychostimuiants. Some items which might deserve mention as adverse eliects are toxic
`psychosis and cardiovascular eliects; also. there is no relarence to the tact that
`psychoslimuiants are associated with many drug-drug interactions (e.g.. with monoamine
`oxidese inhibitors. pressors. old: as noted in their respective labels). The article does not
`mention lowering ol the selrure‘thrashoid as an adverse ailect: however. this is a somewhat
`controversial topic and the literature on this purported effect at the stimulants is mixed.
`'
`Regarding eliicecy. the article states that no controlled studies have been published to
`support the eiiicacy ol Desoaynior Adderail in ADHD. Nonetheless. Desoiryn is approved for
`this indication. As Desoayn was approved in rate. however, the particular clinical trial data
`which led to approval may not be readily accessible. A law compounds which have been
`used "or! label'
`in none: are also mentioned (ctenldlna. desipramlne. buproprien). but the
`article is not inordinately promotional regarding these drugs.
`
`li. Conclusions and Recommendations
`
`On balance. the dull article is an obleotive and rational summary oi pharmacotherapy
`for ADHD.
`.
`
`
`
`We have reviewed your drall article on 'Adderali and other drugs tor attendee detlclt
`hyperactivity disorder and we believe that it presents a balanced and lair summary oi
`pharmacotherapy tor this disorder. We have no corrections to suggest. but some minor

`additions might be in order, Space permitting.
`probably deserve mention in the paragraph on adverse etlecta; likewise, 'relerence could be
`made to the tact that many drugdrug lnteractlona, aorne potentially aerleua. occur with the
`psychoalimulanta (e.g.. with meneamlne oxidaae inhibitora. preuera. entlconvulunte ale: aee
`their respective package lneena). Additionally. with respect to the use at non-etlmulant drugs.
`it could be noted that clinical experience with ouch druga la limited compared to the extensive
`experience with paychoaumulanta. end that nen-etlmuiante are not considered first line drugs;
`no non-stimulant druga have been approved by FDA tar this indication.

`We greatly appreciate the opportunity to comment upon thla manuacrlpt. and it we
`may help by providing commentary on other drelle in the future. please do not imitate to

`
`During my conversation oi May‘ t3, W”, with Peggy Spade (NY District . FDA) and Brad
`Williams (Ollice of Compliance). the approval status of NBA ii-522 lObetrolW came into
`question.
`I attempted to conduct a detailed administrative review of the NDA, however, no
`record of the original file could be located. The Division Document Room Personnel insist that
`the ND/\ is withdrawn and the tile has been retired by the Central Document Room.
`Sultsettuent ellorts to retrieve the application were unsttccesslui.
`i located a personal file and the
`following issues emerged:
`I,
`
`in theW notice at February 1!. i973. the Commissioner announced an
`opportunity lor hearing on his proposal to withdraw approval at new drug applications
`for combination amphetamines.
`
`The Commissioner, based on the review at the medical documentation altered to support
`the claims 0! saletv and ellicaw (or Obetrol tablets. lound that Reaar Pharmacal Corp.
`tailed to present substantial evidence of eliectlveness. Approval oi NBA "-522 was
`withdrawn by the Commissioner’s order etlective on October 5, i973. Notice ot the
`ruling was published in theW at September 25, 1973,
`'Final Order on
`Certain Combination Anorectic Drugs'.

`what action would be taken. An inspection took place on lanuary 28. 1982, and no
`validation data was available.

`
`The sp nsor (Thad Demos . thhwood Pharmaceuticals) contacted me via phone in early

`it appears that the NDA was withdrawn by the commissioner in a Federal Register

`
`I advised that he should request a complete lunpurgedl copy oi all documents
`including supplements, amendments and annual repons under the Freedom oi
`lnlormation Act.
`I reminded him that he must also provide prool of ownership of
`Rexar's NDA. He informed me that Richwood had purchased Rexar.
`I lnlormed him that Rexar (Richwoodl is in a precarious situation in that they are
`unable to provide documentation ol their NDA’s approval status and appear to be
`marketing without an approved NBA.
`
`in the letter of October 2t, 1994, the sponsor requested copies at material contained in
`my personal file.

`l forwarded a copy oi the September
