Research Notes on Common Problems with ADHD Medicines
Medicines prescribed for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may cause side or adverse effects. Parents should take note of the effects of certain drugs on their children and coordinate with their doctor for appropriate dosage or medication adjustments. Adverse drug interactions also pose some level of danger in patients taking more than one medication for ADHD. Therefore, drugs for ADHD should be taken only as prescribed by a physician to avoid these problems.
