Young children with attention deficit hyperactive disorder(ADHD) do better with parental training, according to a recent report.
Children younger than 6 years do not benefit from prescribed medication to control hyperactive behaviour.
The report from the US Department of Health & Human Services found parents behaviour training is effective with no risk of complications for preschool children.
The report recommends that pediatricians consider advocating formal training in parent strategies.
Medication appears to be effective with older children.
