Question

My nephew has been very irritable lately, and he touches everything he can reach, and he loves to throw things around. When we ask him to clean up, he doesn’t listen. He might have ADHD. What effective treatments are there for ADHD?

Answer

ADHD is curable; it is one of the difficult and complex diseases in pediatric medicine. The treatment process may be challenging, but parents should not lose heart and should give their children the utmost encouragement and confidence. After medication treatment, most ADHD children will see improvements in their hyperactive behavior and cognitive function. The dosage control and efficacy evaluation of the medication must be performed by professionals with precision and reliability. In addition, for the inappropriate behavior and illegal acts of ADHD children, positive discipline education should be adopted, along with inspiration and encouragement. When behavioral treatment achieves results, it is also appropriate to give moderate rewards, avoiding mental pressure on the child and never insulting or punishing them physically.
