Participant Flow

Subjects had been on stable treatment with commercial SPD489 (30, 50, or 70 mg/day) for at least 6 months. They then entered a 3-week open-label treatment phase on SPD489 (30, 50, or 70 mg/day). They then entered a 6-week double-blind randomized withdrawal phase where they were assigned to either SPD489 or placebo treatment group.
