Are there any natural remedies for Attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D) ?
Feb 22, 2013

Dr. Ivana Dabaj Pediatric Neurology
In ADD as in ADHD you can start by neuropsychological evaluation and therapy (done by a pediatric psychologist) who will be doing a reeducation. This works in some kids but if it doesn't you have to give medications.
I advise you to start by reeducation but if it doesn't work you need to help your child concentrate and give the medication. (there are different drugs and some have lesser side effects)

Yes, behavioral techniques, parental counselling and the alteration and manipulation of the child's environment, particularly at school, to reduce and minimize distraction are important components, of most treatment programs. An alternative approach has been the use of exclusion diets on the basis that the child is allergic to certain substances, commonly tartrazine .
