The effects of stimulant medications and atomoxetine on physical growth and on cardiovascular function are reviewed in light of the most recent data, with attention to clinical implications and research needs. Although these medications have a favorable benefit/risk profile and do not induce clinically significant changes in growth or cardiovascular function in the majority of cases, careful patient monitoring is needed to identify individuals at risk for negative outcomes. More research is needed to elucidate the mechanism of growth suppression to estimate better the risk for rare but life-threatening events and test the effectiveness of monitoring procedures.
根据最新数据,对兴奋剂类药物和托莫西汀对身体生长及心血管功能的影响进行了综述,并关注其临床意义和研究需求。尽管这些药物具有良好的效益/风险比,且在大多数情况下不会引起生长或心血管功能的临床显著变化,但仍需要对患者进行仔细监测,以识别有出现不良后果风险的个体。需要开展更多研究来阐明生长抑制的机制,以便更好地估计罕见但危及生命事件的风险,并测试监测程序的有效性。
