This year, some attentin reportedly had to enter into circulation the same substance with a slight difference and duration of action produced by the same company that produces medikinet or is there anything known about this drug?

Attentin does not have a valid approval in Poland.
Its safety is currently being discussed. According to the European Medicines Agency:
"It has been recognised that the use of this medicine is associated with a risk of illicit use and abuse. Therefore, in order to minimise this risk, the applicant proposed to limit the use of dexamfetamine as a second-line treatment for ADHD in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years when other medical and non-medical treatment options do not deliver the expected result. In addition, the MAH has proposed a drug utilisation study (DUS) to follow up on reports of abuse and/or overdose as well as a non-interventional post-drug safety study. a non-interventional post authorisation safety study (PASS) to control major adverse events. In addition, educational materials will be made available for physicians and patients, including checklists, in line with educational materials for other ADHD medications."
Research is still underway. If approved, the drug will most likely be indicated as a second-line treatment for ADHD – that is, only when other standard therapies are not effective enough. Therefore, Attentin should not be seen as a substitute for Medikinet.

Good morning
Is there any new information on the marketing authorisation of dextroamphetamine in Poland?

To @patient patient: At the moment, the drug does not yet have a marketing authorisation in Poland.
As soon as I get any new information, it will be posted below this post.
Hi, I received unconfirmed information from a doctor that in June this year is to enter the Polish drug with amphetamine - Attentin. However, I can't find any information about it, or is there something known? Will it be available "normally" or via target import?
Attentin has dextroamphetamine, a completely different substance than the one in Mediknet.

At the moment, a drug with such a name is not registered and available in Poland. I will contact the manufacturer of Medikinet. As soon as I have any information, it will be posted under this post.
