Growth compensatory

As mentioned earlier, the emerging consensus is that the growth spurt in adolescence after psychostimulant discontinuation compensates for any earlier effect on growth velocity. Thus, eventual height is not compromised. What is less clear is whether this compensatory growth spurt would hold true for those continued on psychostimulants through adolescence. Hence, clinicians have an increased responsibility to determine whether a medication has had a positive effect and should continue it during adolescence only when such an effect has been satisfactorily documented.

Figure 1. (A) Schematic representation of the relationship between tissue energy (TE, Mcal/k - /d) and metabolisable energy intake (MEI, Mcal/kgf- /d) for positive and negative TE conditions and (B) conceptual representation of the curvilinear relationship between TE and MEI for normal and compensatory growths. MEj is the MEI at mcdntenance, L is multiple of MEj intake, and aj represents the based metabolism rate (H, Mccd/k - /d).
