Top Key Factors About ADHD

There are 3 major types of Attention Deficit Hyper Activity Disorder.
ADHD is a biochemical disorder in which neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers of the brain, do not work properly.
Medications, such as Atomoxetine and Ritalin can help the neurotransmitters work more effectively.
ADHD rarely occurs alone.
Not all individuals with ADHD are alike.
