[quote=Anonymous]I have two DD's with Inattentive type ADHD, both diagnosed in middle school after extensive testing. Medication has helped them both (and they are very different) focus and stay on task. They are not the type of kids who you would guess have ADHD, i.e. nobody was demanding they be medicated for behavior, but it was apparent that their inattention (1 kid) and disorganization (the other) was interfering with their academic progress. I found very little side effects with the relatively low dosage they take and there was a definite benefit. With a mild inattentive form of ADHD you don't need medication on the weekends, on vacation, during the summer, etc. It has definitely been helpful. [/quote]
