Atomoksetin Kullanımı Sırasında Gelişen Bir Obsesif Kompulsif Bozukluk Olgusu

Year 2015, Volume: 9 Issue: 2, 140 - 142, 01.06.2015

Abstract

Dikkat eksikliği hiperaktivite bozukluğu (DEHB) çocuk ve ergenlerde yaklaşık olarak %5,9-7.1 oranında görülmektedir. Atomoksetin, DEHB tedavisinde kullanılan psikostimülanlara alternatif norepinefrin taşıyıcılarının seçici inhibötürüdür. On bir yaşında erkek hasta dikkati sürdürmede güçlük, çabuk sıkılma, görev ve etkinliklerini tamamlayamama, unutkanlık şikâyetleriyle çocuk psikiyatri polikliniğine getirildi. Ruhsal Bozuklukların Tanısal ve Sayımsal Elkitabı IV (DSM IV) tanı kriterlerine göre “Dikkat Eksikliği Hiperaktivite Bozukluğu, Dikkatsizliğin Önde Olduğu Tip” tanısı alan olguda uzun etkili metilfenidat tedavisi planlandı. Otuz altı mg/gün uzun etkili metilfenidat tedavisinde iştahsızlık, bulantı gibi gastrointestinal yan etkiler ortaya çıkması ve buna bağlı gelişen ilaç uyumsuzluğu nedeniyle metilfenidat tedavisi kesilerek 1.hafta 25 mg/gün, 2.hafta 40 mg/gün ve idame olarak 60 mg/gün (1,2 mg/kg/gün) olacak şekilde atomoksetin tedavisi planlandı. Atomoksetin 60 mg/gün kullanımında olgumuzda düzen, simetri takıntısı, emin olamama, bir şey yaparken sürekli onaylanma ihtiyacı gibi yakınmalarının başlaması üzerine DSM IV tanı kriterleri dikkate alınarak yapılan klinik değerlendirme görüşmesi sonucunda DEHB ve OKB tanı kriterlerinin karşılandığı görülmüştür. Atomoksetin kullanımı ile OKB gelişen bu olgunun literatüre katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmüştür.

Atomoxetine Use A Case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Developing During

Year 2015, Volume: 9 Issue: 2, 140 - 142, 01.06.2015

Abstract

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is observed in approximately 5.9-7.1% of children and adolescents. Atomoxetine is selective norepinephrine transporter inhibitor and an alternative to stimulants used to treat ADHD. An 11-year-old male patient was brought to the child psychiatry clinic with complaints of difficulty in sustaining attention, getting bored quickly, inability to complete tasks and activities, and forgetfulness. A diagnosis of “Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder, Predominantly Inattentive type’’ was made according to the diagnostic criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV (DSM IV) and long-acting methylphenidate treatment was started. Gastrointestinal side effects such as anorexia and nausea due to the drug occurred with 36 mg/day long-acting methylphenidate treatment and methylphenidate was discontinued. Atomoxetine treatment was started at 25 mg/day in the first week, 40 mg/day for 2 weeks and then 60 mg/day (1.2 mg/kg/day) maintenance. Obsessive-compulsive symptoms such as symmetry obsession, not being sure of having done something, and constant need for approval occurred after the use of 60 mg of atomoxetine per day. A diagnosis of ADHD + Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) was made according to DSM IV-TR following a re-evaluation. We believe this case will contribute to the literature with the development of OCD following the use of atomoxetine
