What Are the Different Types of ADHD Medication?
ADHD medication is generally divided into two broad categories: stimulant and non-stimulant types. Medication does not cure ADHD, but it can help manage the symptoms. Each person responds to ADHD medication differently, so you may need to try more than one medication before you find one that works for you. Medication is generally one part of your treatment plan, combined with some form of cognitive therapy or specialized ADHD coaching sessions. You will work together with your doctor to determine the right medication for your specific needs.
