[quote=Anonymous]My child with ADHD doesn't have low processing speed and has fairly severe symptoms of ADHD. He's combined type, but re the inattentive symptoms, someone could call out his name repeatedly, or even wave a hand in front of his face, and he wouldn't notice. On medication, he can function in a classroom almost as well as an NT child. I can see why it would be harder for a child who may be taking longer to respond due to low processing speed or whose ADHD may be more moderate. ADHD meds will go out of the system quickly. You can give it a try and discontinue use if it's not helping him enough to warrant continued use.[/quote]
