Question
What are the treatment methods for pediatric ADHD?
Answer
The treatment for ADHD encompasses both medication and non-medication strategies. Medication primarily involves stimulants, central nervous system norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, and antidepressants. Non-pharmacological treatments focus on helping children learn appropriate social skills, while parents need to maintain consistency and stable parent-child relationships, employing appropriate methods for behavior modification. Additionally, collaboration with teachers is essential to provide remedial support and assistance to the child in their academic challenges.
