Chronic Tic Disorders in Youth: Clinical Phenotypes and Response to Pharmacological Treatment with Aripiprazole
Comorbid neurodevelopmental disorders, such as ADHD or ASD, result in worse emotional and behavioral functioning in patients with tic disorders. ADHD-ASD interaction may be linked to more internalizing symptoms and autistic behaviors. Aripiprazole improves overall clinical outcomes, although comorbid ADHD may hinder the reduction of tic symptoms.
