ADHD Tablets & Injections

ADHD - Overview

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects adults and children. It is characterised by lack of attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, which can impact daily activities and social interactions. Symptoms may include difficulty in paying attention, forgetfulness, fidgeting, interrupting others, and impulsive behaviour. ADHD is often treated with medication, behavioural therapy, or a combination of both. While there is no cure for ADHD, management and support can lead to improved functioning and quality of life.

Types Of ADHD Medicines Available

There are several medications approved for the treatment of ADHD. The five main types are:

• Stimulants, such as methylphenidate and amphetamines, which increases dopamine and norepinephrine levels in the brain to improve focus and concentration.
• Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) reduce aggressiveness and hyperactivity and help the nerve cells communicate more effectively with the brain.
• Alpha-2 agonists, such as clonidine and guanfacine, which work to improve attention and impulse control.
• Antidepressants, such as bupropion and venlafaxine, which can be used to treat ADHD in some cases.

Medication is just one part of ADHD treatment, along with a comprehensive approach that may include therapy, lifestyle changes, and accommodations in school or work settings. The patient takes prescribed ADHD tablets daily to manage their symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. In some cases, patients are prescribed ADHD injections as well. They can opt for the convenience of ordering their ADHD medication online, ensuring timely access to their prescribed treatment.
