Smoking & ADHD

Dr. Scott Kollins, Director of the Duke ADHD Program, in collaboration with colleagues at the Center for Nicotine and Smoking Cessation Research, is conducting two research studies related to ADHD and smoking:

• The 'NIDA (National Institute on Drug Abuse) Smoking' study focuses on short term abstinence

          (that is, not necessarily interested in permanently quitting), for which we are recruiting smokers ages

          18-50 who regularly smoke at least 1/2 pack/day and who may or may not have been diagnosed with

           ADHD.

• The 'ADHD & Smoking Treatment' study focuses on treatment with medication for smoking cessation, as Dr. Kollins is researching whether medication used to treat ADHD can be used as effective adjunct treatment to nicotine replacement t therapy to promote permanent cessation in adults. We are actively recruiting smokers ages 18-50 who regularly smoke at least 1/2 pack/day and who have been diagnosed with ADHD or have existing symptoms.
