Children with ADHD are commonly medicated to help control the way their brain communicates with itself. Children with ADHD have trouble with alertness, hyperactivity, and memory. Medication can help a child to achieve a certain amount of control over their ADHD symptoms. Most of these medications are fairly quick acting while some are extended release medications.
There are two ADHD medications, stimulants and non-stimulants.
The two major types of medication for ADHD are stimulants and non-stimulants. Stimulants act on the brain by stimulating the production of dopamine which can help control motivation and emotional response. Non-stimulants increase the activity of norepinephrine in the brain and produce similar results as stimulants. Non-stimulants are used when the child develops a reaction to stimulants.
