Sarah Safranek, MLIS. Stimulant medication therapy is the most effective treatment for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, producing significant improvements in symptoms and modest improvements in academic achievement (strength of recommendation [SOR]: A, based on multiple randomized controlled trials [RCTs]).
Only three treatments have been proven to be effective for ADHD: behavior modification, medication, and the combination of the two. These treatments have been demonstrated to have short-term effects. No treatment has been shown to influence outcomes in adolescents or adults with ADHD over the long term.
