[QUOTE="runawaybunny, post: 363185"] [B]Combination of Conduct Disorder and ADHD Predictive of Substance Abuse - Medscape[/B] In a 10-year follow-up study of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), the occurrence of substance use disorder (SUD) was increased compared with controls, especially among ADHD youth with early conduct disorder, according to a study from Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston. The study was presented here at the American Psychiatric Association (APA) 2010 Annual Meeting. ADHD and associated comorbidity are known to be risk factors for substance abuse in adolescence and young adulthood, but few studies have examined the early childhood risk factors that may predispose patients to this behavior, said Timothy E. Wilens, MD, and colleagues from the Pediatric Psychopharmacology Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital. [/QUOTE]
