Management and treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder

Any treatment plan for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) must be based on a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, being aware of possible concomitant medical or psychiatric conditions. Rather than focusing just on the disorder, subjects should be treated as individuals in their social context; baseline symptom severity, impairments, and strengths should be recorded, as well as any environmental risks and/or protective factors. This chapter presents how to develop a treatment plan and offers an extensive update on current available treatments and the safety of ADHD medications, with practical implications for clinicians.
