What are the treatment methods for ADHD?

Patient's question:

What are the treatment methods for children with ADHD? My child has had pediatric ADHD for half a year. He doesn't pay attention well in class. He often disturbs his classmates while studying. His behavior is quite bad. As a parent, how can I help my child treat ADHD? What are the treatment methods for children with ADHD?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of pediatric ADHD is not solely based on medication. It includes psychological therapy, family therapy, behavioral therapy, dietary therapy, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and Western medicine treatment, among others. This is a comprehensive treatment approach. It is not effective to rely on just one method. Help children concentrate, focus on their interests, play with them, and stimulate their interest in learning to extend their attention span. For example, when a child enjoys drawing, you should provide them with ample space and even draw with them.
