The increasing use of stimulants in the United States to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has aroused parental concern and compelled both medical professionals and the media to question the safety and efficacy of this type of treatment (Ford et al, 2003).
The American Psychiatric Association and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry have developed; ADHD Parents Medication Guide. You can find other medication guides by visiting ParentsMedGuide.org
