New ideas for reating ADHD ?
Posted On 14/12/2009 17:07:22 by administrator

Well isn’t it just amazing?

Scientists ( see  medical research scientists!) have discovered that many children with ADHD and who are taking stimulant medication such as Ritalin and Adderall ( a combination of amphetamines) are still showing symptoms of aggression whilst they are on the medication.

So.. is this then deemed not to be working and therefore an indication to look at other forms of treatment and causes for these behavioural symptoms?

NO!!!!

It doesn’t!!!!

The solution then?

To prescribe anti seizure driugs for these children in addition to their other stimulant medication.

In a trial study, Dr. Joseph C. Blader, from Stony Brook University School of Medicine, has been prescribing Divalproex, an anti seizure drug which makes children  unhappy and difficult for them to sleep and discovered that it helps to reduce aggression compared to a group who received placebos. It is thought this will now pave the way for better drug combinations.

Am I missing something here? – anyone stopped to think about the fact the drugs are creating the problems and aren’t working or would a radical opinion like that affect profits if taken seriously.
