Additional Details

Description

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common behavioral condition and the second most common chronic illness in children; however, current objective assessments are of limited use in clarifying the diagnosis. This collection offers an evidence-based approach to evaluating children for ADHD.

It also addresses treatment challenges, including prescribing practices for stimulant and non-stimulant ADHD medications, monitoring for medication adherence, side effects, dosing, and medication adjustments. Additionally, a discussion of the effectiveness of nonpharmacologic treatments such as neurofeedback, cognitive training, and herbal or dietary supplements is provided.
