dc.description.abstract"Skin picking disorder," also known as "dermatillomania" or "psychogenic excoriation," is classified in the "Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders" category in Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition and characterized by repetitive skin picking behaviors resulting in skin lesions. Atomoxetine (ATX) is a selective norepinephrine (noradrenaline) reuptake inhibitor commonly used in the management of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Atomoxetine is considered to increase levels of noradrenaline and dopamine by inhibiting norepinephrine transporters. In this case report, we present an 8-year-old male attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder patient with skin picking behavior due to ATX treatment. We discussed possible explanations of skin picking behavior with ATX in the light of the current literature. To our knowledge, this is the first report of skin picking due to ATX in literature, and further studies are needed to investigate the frequency and mechanisms of skin picking with ATX.en_US
