Abstract
ADHD is a complex condition, often presenting with comorbid conditions. The costs of untreated ADHD may lead to substance misuse, poor occupational performance and marital disharmony. There is, however, effective treatment available for which there is a considerable evidence base. Medication treatment is simple and effective, but the added advantages of giving psychological interventions as well as medication cannot be underestimated.
