[quote=Anonymous] Research scientist here. Having combed the primary research literature for information on ADHD medication, I can tell you that nothing works better than methylphenidate stimulants (ex: Focalin). Then come amphetamine stimulants (ex: Adderall), then come non-stimulants then anti-depressants (risky). Cannabis use for ADHD is not well researched and is therefore riskier than the list above. I do not recommend it until your DD has worked with a reputable psychiatrist and tried a couple of meds of each kind, without success. Cannabis can be used successfully for many chronic pain situations. ADHD is not one of them. [/quote]
