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]).
Stimulant drugs are the treatment most often used for ADHD. They may be the only treatment you use, or you can try them along with behavior therapy. These drugs help ADHD symptoms in about 70% of adults and 70% to 80% of children. They tend to cut down on hyperactivity, interrupting, and fidgeting.
