Name Time Method Main Objective: To characterize the impact of genetic, environmental (e.g. smoking, concomitant use of drugs, narcotics, alcohol) and other factors such as gender, age, body weight and types of addiction on the inter- and intra-individual variability of plasma concentrations of MPH, its enantiomers and metabolites, and on dose requirement in adults with ADHD and comorbid SUD.;Secondary Objective: To explore the potential of a metabolomics approach using high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) for simultaneous analysis of multiple drugs, metabolites and biomarkers in plasma. <br><br>;Primary end point(s): •Plasma concentrations of MPH, its enantiomers, metabolites and concomitant drugs;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 2 bloodsamples will be collected Visit 1 to Visit 4 (one-two weeks interval)
