Patient's question:
What are the effective methods for treating ADHD? My nephew has been very irritable lately. He touches everything he can reach and also likes to throw things around. When we ask him to tidy up, he doesn't listen either. He might have ADHD. What are the effective methods for treating ADHD?Doctor's answer:
Hello, ADHD can be cured. ADHD is a difficult and complex childhood disease, and treatment can be challenging. However, parents should not lose hope and must give their children the greatest encouragement and confidence. Most children with ADHD show improvement in hyperactive behavior or cognitive function after taking medication. The control of medication dosage and the evaluation of medication efficacy must be done professionally, accurately, and reliably. Positive disciplinary education should be given to children with ADHD for their negative behaviors and illegal actions. More inspiration and encouragement should be provided, and rewards should be given when there is progress in behavioral therapy. Mental pressure should not be applied, and neither should there be scolding or physical punishment.
