Abstract

AbstractThe current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of orally administered rapid mini-tablets containing atomoxetine hydrochloride (ODMT) relative to the conventional capsule formulation of atomoxetine hydrochloride (ATO). To mask the bitter taste of ATO and render it more palatable for pediatric administration in individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), an inclusion complex of ATO with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was synthesized. The ODMT and conventional capsule ATO formulations were administered orally to a cohort of ADHD rat pups born to nicotine-exposed dams, facilitating an in vivo efficacy assessment. Behavioral assays, including the open field test, novel object recognition test, and Barnes maze test, were conducted pre- and post-administration of the therapeutics. The outcomes suggested that the ODMT formulation, incorporating ATO-β-CD inclusion complexes, shows promise as a viable alternative to the capsule form of ATO. Conclusively, the preparation of the ATO-β-CD complexes and ODMTs leveraged a factorial experimental design, with the animal model being subjected to nicotine-induced hyperactivity to provide a unique evaluative framework for the ODMT formulation under development.
