Abstract

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is a highly diagnosed psychiatric disorder in children. This widespread and complex condition requires extensive evaluation involving clinicians, parents and teachers. Proper management involves individual assessment and treatment. Psychostimulants remain the primary medication of choice as they have been shown to be efficacious for this condition. Newer, long-acting medications are providing expanded options for children and their caregivers. Failure to assess and treat can lead to serious long-term effects later in life.
