- In addition, we will NEVER solve the problems associated with this condition which is the result of the ingestion of toxins (created by science for our supposed benefit), by giving the victims more toxins supposedly to cure us from the first set of diseases they've already given us.

MEDICATIONS

A combination of medication and behavioral treatment works best. There are several different types of ADHD medications that may be used alone or in combination.

Psychostimulants (also known as stimulants) are the most commonly used ADHD drugs. Although these drugs are called stimulants, they actually have a calming effect on people with ADHD.

These drugs include:

Amphetamine-dextroamphetamine (Adderall)
Dexmethylphenidate (Focalin)
Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine - Dextrostat)
Lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse)
Methylphenidate (Ritalin - Concerta - Metadate - Daytrana)
