Bulletin 383. ADHD

This bulletin reviews the place in therapy of drug treatments for ADHD in adults and children. Medicines optimisation in this area focuses on making sure that medication use is appropriate and safe. This includes ensuring the correct monitoring of drug treatment and confirming that it is only continued where it remains clinically necessary and effective.

Infographics at organisational and patient level explain the key messages of Look, Review, Do. An audit is available to support identification of patients needing a review and a patient letter and text messages explain treatment changes. There is an educational presentation. The attachments can be locally adapted if needed.
