Patient's question:
A 15-year-old boy with 9 months of medication for ADHD, will it cause harm to the body? Can he recover to normal after stopping the medication?Doctor's answer:
General ADHD is primarily seen in infants and young children. If an adult has ADHD, the main approach is to prevent tension and agitation, and to relax. The key is to adjust oneself, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and prevent tension. Medication is primarily used, usually starting with low doses. If symptoms improve significantly, medication can be gradually discontinued. It generally has no side effects, but regular follow-up tests are necessary, as resistance can easily develop.For patients, if the ADHD condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of ADHD. In addition, patients need to maintain a positive mood at all times to avoid severe conditions.
