Urinary Retention Associated with Atomoxetine Use: A Case Report
Özet
Atomoxetine is a well-studied non-stimulant treatment agent, and is also the first-choice non-stimulant drug for the conventional treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder owing to its effectiveness and tolerability. Urinary retention is a type of urologi cal emergency that is associated with the inability to urinate despite the bladder being full and a strong urge to urinate. It is known that urinary retention can also develop due to the use of anticholinergic drugs. In this manuscript, we present a 12-year-old male case who developed acute urinary retention in the period following atoifioxetine treatment.
