Some kids may require aggressive ADHD therapy

A researcher believes that certain children with

attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder should be treated with aggressive

medication therapy. Dr. Stuart reports that Caucasian boys who have

been diagnosed early in life with ADHD may benefit from taking several

medications at once. The standard approach when initially treating ADHD is

to start with only one prescription. (Doctor's Guide News) UPDATED

Too much TV can cause many academic problems for teenagers

In a recent study, researchers found that the amount of television teenagers

watch affects their learning ability. Teenagers who were watching three

hours or more of television per day at age 14 were more likely to have

attention difficulties and poor grades. They were also more likely to drop

out of high school. The study found this was true even if the child did not

have a prior learning disability. (HealthDay News) UPDATED 2007-05-13 22:39.

Doctor: Exam week increases Ritalin abuse in college students

College students are increasingly taking Ritalin to help them stay awake to

study during final exam week, according to drug abuse experts. Ritalin is

readily available, cheaper, and--many students believe--safer to take than

street drugs. A doctor at the University of Florida says that students who

take stimulants without a prescription often do worse academically than

students who avoid the drugs. (Newswise) UPDATED 2007-05-13 22:23. Click
