Question
What medications are effective for treating ADHD? My child is 8 years old and has consistently poor academic performance, and they can’t sit still. After checking, they were diagnosed with ADHD, and I don’t know how to proceed with treatment.
Answer
ADHD is a self-limiting childhood disorder that typically resolves naturally with age. Long-term follow-up observations by scholars have found that only children with ADHD can recover spontaneously. Most symptoms in children can extend into adulthood. To control the progression of the condition, treatment should be initiated as soon as possible. Specific treatment should be sought at a regular hospital and under the guidance of a doctor.
