Understanding medications used for ADHD can be overwhelming, particularly when you consider the vitamin and supplement options as well. As a part of one of my favorite events, I gave a presentation that breaks down some of the main points about ADHD medications: classifications, how (we think) they work, and information on how some supplements can also be an important part of a treatment plan.
