What is ADHD? ADHD is short for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. It is a neurobehavioral disorder that affects children, teens, and adults. ADHD is a real disorder that affects an estimated 5%-8% of school-age children. What are some signs of ADHD? Daydreaming, forgetting, or losing things Not sticking with 1 activity long enough to finish Not being able to sit still, running around Talking too much and interrupting Making careless mistakes, lack of attention to details Having trouble taking turns Touching and playing with everything they see Blurting out answers ADHD symptoms can change over time as a person gets older. 2

How does someone get ADHD? Nobody knows for sure how or why someone gets ADHD. It s nothing that anyone did wrong. ADHD does not come from poor parenting or a bad home life. In fact, studies suggest a genetic link to ADHD. ADHD has been shown to run in families. 3

What are some considerations for managing ADHD? You can give your child a setting to succeed at home and school. If you are a child with ADHD, it s important to keep yourself organized. Making sure any prescribed ADHD medicine is taken the right way is only part of their treatment plan. Also be active in talking with teachers, getting the help needed from specialists, and learning how to help improve behavior. Here s a checklist to help get started: Make sure a complete evaluation is done. This includes medical, educational, and psychological evaluations to rule out things that may look like ADHD but aren t. Keep a record of all information. Learn all about ADHD and its treatment to be able to tell the difference between good and bad information. Know the rights of students under 2 education laws: Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 (an antidiscrimination law). Meet with school staff (principal, special education expert, classroom teacher) to come up with a plan. You can ask that others who understand ADHD be there. This may include the school psychologist, nurse, or guidance counselor. Share relevant information received about ADHD from outside experts at these meetings. Be an active part of the team that decides what placements and services are received. 4

What are some tips for living with ADHD? Kids and teens can thrive despite living with ADHD. Here are some ideas they can use. Create a routine. Doing the same thing at the same time every day can help create positive habits and keep everyone on schedule. Put everything in the same place every time. This will help in knowing where everything is and make it less likely things will get lost. Limit distractions. Turn off the TV, radio, and computer. This will help keep the focus on homework or other activities. Limit choices. Choosing between 2 things is a lot easier for everyone, whether it s outfits or what to pack for lunch. Make a chart of goals and positive behavior to track and reward progress. Goals should be realistic (finishing homework every night). Other goals can be tracked in different ways either on paper or through an app. Exploring talents. Enjoying something one does well can help boost confidence and self-esteem. 5

If your child has ADHD It s natural to feel upset when you are told your child has ADHD. All of a sudden, there s a lot more you have to learn and do. Staying calm and in control isn t always easy. Here are some things that might help: Join a support group like CHADD. Ask for help from professionals or family members when you feel stressed, frustrated, or exhausted. If you re the parent of a child with ADHD, get all adults involved with your child on board with how you are going to handle problem behavior and reward good behavior. Is ADHD medicine the right option? ADHD medicine is just one part of treating ADHD. Most ADHD treatment plans use medicine, behavior therapy, parent training, and school training together. Because each person is different, any treatment plan will include close monitoring, follow-up visits, and changes along the way to make sure ADHD symptoms stay under control. The right treatment plan can go a long way toward helping your child succeed. Important Safety Information Do not take Zenzedi if you or your child: has a history of advanced heart disease or hardening of the arteries, moderate to severe high blood pressure, hyperthyroidism, known hypersensitivity or other serious cardiac problems that may place you or your child at increased vulnerability to the sympathomimetic effects of a stimulant drug or glaucoma is very anxious, tense or agitated has a history of drug abuse is taking or has taken within the past 14 days an antidepression medicine called a monoamine oxidase inhibitor or MAOI 6
