Steps After Diagnosis

Question: Once we have a diagnosis of ADHD what is next?
Answer: The role of medication in treating ADHD is as strong as the role of antihypertensive medications for high blood pressure. The MTA study showed that medication is by far the most effective type of treatment. Just as it is in managing high blood pressure, patient education and cognitive behavioral changes are an essential component.
