an excerpt from ADDitude’s website

Studies and clinical trials have shown that ADHD medications give the following benefits to some children and adults:

• improve working memory, classroom behavior, the motivation to execute tasks, and to persist in solving problems

• minimize boredom, distractability when doing tasks, and emotional outbursts

• increase test performance, rates of graduation, and other achievements that can have lasting effects

• normalize structural abnormalities in specific brain regions
