Patient's question:
Unable to sit still, loves fighting, bites clothes, loves playing on the phone, doesn't pass notes in class: loves walking around.Doctor's answer:
Medication includes central stimulants, antidepressants, antihypertensive drugs, and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. From the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), insufficient kidney yin in children, rising virtual fire, and restlessness can lead to a deficiency of yin and an excess of yang during developmental periods, which may trigger attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Therefore, nourishing yin and tonifying the kidneys to strengthen the brain is the key to treating ADHD. There are many traditional Chinese medicine drugs for ADHD, but they lack scientific methods to validate their efficacy.
