Question
My wife’s brother’s child is 8 years old. He has poor thinking abilities and cannot concentrate on his attention. He is an ADHD patient. How do you treat ADHD?
Answer
The two prominent symptoms of ADHD are hyperactivity and inattention. For children aged 6 and above with ADHD, it is recommended to use stimulants from the ADHD center as the first-line treatment. Common medications include methylphenidate, with an efficacy rate of 75-80%. Moline is no longer recommended due to the increased risk of acute liver failure.
