My child’s pediatrician recommended we try medication to treat his ADHD. We are concerned about the side effects we often hear about. What should we do?

Side effects are certainly a valid concern and should be taken seriously. Educate yourself on the possible side effects and make sure you are comfortable with your pharmacist; he or she will be a great resource. If your child does experience side effects let your pediatrician know and ask yourself whether they are tolerable or if they are changing the quality of life. Have a plan in place for how you will keep track of positive impacts as well as side effects.  For example, use a calendar on your phone or have a notebook placed strategically and date and record any concerns
