Abstract:
Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most commonly diagnosed psychiatric disorder in children. Diagnosis is clinical. The role of imaging, rating scales and computerized screening tests in patient evaluation is examined. Management involves the use of medication as well as patient-specific psychosocial intervention. Psychostimulants are first line agents and have been shown to be highly efficacious for treating ADHD. Mode of action and pertinent clinical issues regarding each stimulant and non-stimulant medication uses are discussed.
