Research Notes on ADHD and Epilepsy in Kids


Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may predispose children to have epilepsy or seizure disorders by three to fives times compared to children in the general population. The treatment regimen of ADHD may include anticonvulsants to help control the seizures in epilepsy. However, medications for ADHD such as Ritalin may interact with anticonvulsants reducing their effectiveness.
