Does my child have ADHD?

Recognizing ADHD in children involves observing persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity impacting daily life. Look for signs like frequent distraction, difficulty following instructions, and impulsive behavior interfering with school or social interactions. Consulting a qualified healthcare provider can provide clarity through comprehensive evaluation and assessment.

What are the treatment options for my child?

Treatment for ADHD often involves a combination of behavioral therapy, medication, and parent education.
