How Do You Judge the Efficacy of Treatments For ADHD?
"If it works, don't fix it" goes the old saying.
Why can't we apply that to ADHD medication which uses psychostimulants and which will calm children down and help them to focus? Surely that is sufficient proof to judge the efficacy of treatments for ADHD? Problem is that Adderall and Ritalin which are the most common drugs used, are based on Dexedrine which is an amphetamine which is a Schedule II Controlled Substance, with tight controls by the U.
S.
Drug Enforcement Agency.
Just like cocaine and other controlled substances.
Ritalin is not called 'kiddy coke' without a reason! In examining the efficacy of treatments for ADHD, maybe we should look a little more closely at these psychostimulants so hyped up by the drug companies.
Alarm bells are ringing in university circles where students are using these drugs illegally to get higher grades because they are regarded as a study aid and they can concentrate for long hours without a break.
The Director of the student health center at Colorado University is worried that the long term effects of these drugs are being ignored.
They can induce long-term mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and suicidal depression.
What a price to pay for a great grade ! You can imagine what the long term effects could be on a child's brain if they were on these drugs for any length of time.
Accurate and reliable information about the long term effects of any drug should be at the top of any list when judging ADHD treatment efficacy.
Looking at the efficacy of treatments for ADHD, we should ask ourselves what exactly we want for our ADHD children.
My first criterion for ADHD treatment efficacy would be safety and effectiveness without any risk for my child's long term or even short term health.
ADHD homeopathic remedies fulfil both these criteria but your doctor will not tell you that.
You are a big boy/girl now so you just have to find out for yourself.
If I told you that one of the main ingredients in the ADHD homeopathic remedy was Hyoscyamus , you would probably shrug your shoulders and remain indifferent.
If I told you that this ingredient reduces excitability, calms outbursts and reduces squirming, fidgeting and grunting, then you would probably sit up and take notice.
If I then told you that these homeopathic remedies had no side effects and there are no known health risks, you would probably want to find out more.
Judging the efficacy of treatments for ADHD can be a difficult task but now more and more parents have discovered that homeopathic remedies for ADHD are about the most effective ones you can get.
