Hello, ADHD is a common behavioral problem in childhood. This condition has two main symptoms: attention deficit and hyperactivity, which can be accompanied by impulsive behavior and learning difficulties. It typically onset before the age of 6, with symptoms becoming more pronounced during school age and gradually improving with age. In some cases, it can persist into adulthood.Most children show improvement in hyperactive behavior or cognitive function after taking medication. However, difficulties in controlling medication dosage and potential side effects can lead to issues such as malnutrition affecting bone growth and development, as well as behavioral rebound (where symptoms worsen after stopping medication, becoming more severe than before treatment). During medication, it is essential to ensure that the dosage is controlled and the effectiveness of the medication is evaluated professionally, accurately, and reliably.
