~~ADHD/ADD Treatment~~
Whether a child has ADHD, bipolar, Asperger Syndrome, Tourettes, etc., medication is not always an
option and rarely would it be the sole treatment required. Successful treatment typically requires a
multimodal approach. An overall treatment plan could include but not be limited to pediatrician,
psychologist, psychiatrist, school personnel, behavior management, parental education, medication,
perhaps an adjustment to diet, etc.
