Summary

The purpose of this small open-label trial is to evaluate the feasibility of recruiting cannabis dependent patients for treatment with Atomoxetine and MIT. The clinical data to date on Atomoxetine has been limited to children and adults with attention deficit disorder without co-morbid substance dependence. However, one study estimated that adults with attention deficit disorder have rates of drug abuse three to four times higher than controls (Mannuzza S 1998). The study also reported that cannabis and cocaine are most frequently abused in this population.
