Answer
Hello, for children with ADHD, medication treatment is typically employed. Some central nervous system stimulants can be chosen for treatment. When treating, it is best to start with a low dose and gradually increase it until the maintenance dose is reached. Of course, it is best to choose the appropriate medication under a doctor’s guidance. Common symptoms of ADHD include inattention, hyperactivity, and difficulty sitting still. If the child shows these symptoms, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to further confirm the diagnosis and actively treat under a doctor’s guidance.
