Food and Drug Administration repudiates ADHD drug by Sunovion

Sunovion’s ADHD drug for the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has not been accepted by the Food and Drug Administration, FDA.

The drug is a novel dual-acting dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (DNRI). Sunovion is slated to meet the Food and Drug Administration for discussing the problems.
