Medication
Approved and Proven Medications to
help with the symptoms of ADHD
Stimulants: These increase the neurotransmitter levels in your body, help with the heart rate, and blood pressure. In effect, the body reacts positively by sustaining focus, managing impulsivity and lowering hyperactivity.
Non-stimulants: These medications are an alternative for when stimulants fail to work. Although they take a while to manifest, their actions increase impulse control and concentration.

Mango Clinic offers an effective ADHD treatment option. The amount of ADHD medication options out there can, however, be staggering. Finding suitable ADHD treatment options can thus be confusing at times. Our ADHD specialist will provide you with a list of ADHD treatment medication options for adults. The ADHD medication treatment options can be classified as non-stimulant and stimulant medications.
Stimulants work by increasing the level of dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is a vital neurotransmitter that helps with enhancing motivation, attention and pleasure. Stimulants such as Adderall and Concerta have been known to improve the symptoms of ADHD. These drugs help with boosting concentration and focus among people with ADHD.
These ADHD medications are suitable for patients who can’t treat their ADHD problems using stimulants. The drugs work by stimulating your nervous system. Non-stimulants have several advantages over other drugs used for ADHD treatment. T hese drugs don’t cause sleeplessness, a lack of appetite and agitation. Furthermore, these drugs don’t pose a risk of addiction or abuse like most ADHD medication drugs. They also have a longer-lasting effect than their stimulant counterparts.
Adult ADHD Medication
The symptoms and signs of ADHD can be hard to detect in adults, unlike in kids. Therefore, treating ADHD in adults through counseling and psychotherapies can be ineffective. The most effective treatment option for ADHD among adults entails the use of medication.
FDA Approved ADHD Medication
Here are some of the FDA-approved medications.
Non-stimulants – FDA has approved three medication under this category, namely atomoxetine (Strattera), Kapvay (clonidine), and Intuniv (guanfacine)
Stimulants – FDA has approved the use of Methylphenidate, Ritalin and Adderall for treating ADHD.
The drugs used for ADHD treatment offer several benefits over other ADHD treatment options such as psychotherapy. These medications are effective in reducing symptoms of ADHD, such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
These medications have been known to help kids with ADHD perform better at school. Even among adults with ADHD, these medications can help them improve their concentration and interactions with other people, including friends and family members.
People with ADHD usually suffer from a lack of concentration, something that affects their daily functioning. Research shows that ADHD medication can help such people improve their cognitive skills, ultimately reducing the lapses in concentration and making their lives better.
We approach the treatment of ADHD with an integrative medical plan that reduces your symptoms and teaches you how to cope with the condition. For this, we include a combination of prescription drugs and therapy sessions for long term effects.

There are several internal and external factors that may cause attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Research suggests a strong link between ADHD and genetics, maternal substance abuse, premature birth, and early exposure to environmental toxins. In most cases, if a child is diagnosed with ADHD, their parents and siblings are more likely to have ADHD themselves.
Although ADHD symptoms can overlap, there are three main subtypes/presentations of this condition:
People with ADHD tend to be impulsive and have a greater risk of getting injured, hospitalized, or contracting an STD. When left untreated, an adult with ADHD can experience significant problems with education, self-esteem, social and family relationships, employment, and emotional health. Fortunately, it is never too late to discover, diagnose, and treat ADHD plus any other mental health conditions associated with it.
Children with ADHD exhibit severe and frequent behavioral problems that can interfere with their ability to live normal lives. More often, children with ADHD suffer low self-esteem and rejection, which can lead to delinquency, depression, and substance abuse later in life. However, proper care and medication can help minimize the symptoms of ADHD and improve quality of life.
Treatment for ADHD involves medication and behavioral therapy. Stimulants such as Concerta and Vyvanse are the best-known medication for ADHD in adults. Children are, however, given ADHD medication in smaller doses. Studies suggest that about 70-80% of children with ADHD exhibit fewer symptoms when taking these fast-acting medications.
