Description

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) manifests itself in a variety of symptoms across domains of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity. It is also often comorbid with other mental health or developmental diagnoses. This project created a "pearls of wisdom" flowchart of considerations in choosing medications and other interventions for children with ADHD and other comorbidities based upon shadowing and consultation with a Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrician, whose practice focused on complex ADHD management.
