What is ADHD?

ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a condition that includes a combination of persistent problems, such as difficulty paying attention, hyperactivity, and impulsive behavior. These symptoms often begin in childhood and can continue into adulthood, affecting academic performance, work, relationships, and daily tasks.

ADHD typically presents in one of three ways:

Predominantly Inattentive Presentation: Difficulty with focus, organization, and task completion.
Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation: Excessive restlessness, impulsivity, and difficulty waiting.
Combined Presentation: A mix of both inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive symptoms.

Common symptoms in adults may include:

Difficulty concentrating or staying focused
Impulsiveness
Restlessness or fidgeting
Disorganization and problems prioritizing
Poor time management skills
Trouble multitasking
Difficulty coping with stress
Frequent mood swings

The exact cause of ADHD is unknown, but research suggests several factors may be involved:

Genetics: ADHD often runs in families.
Brain Structure and Function: Differences in brain activity and structure, particularly in areas controlling attention and impulse.
Environmental Factors: Exposure to certain toxins during pregnancy, premature birth, or low birth weight.

Diagnosing ADHD typically involves:

A comprehensive evaluation by a licensed mental health professional.
Discussion of symptoms, medical history, and family history.
Standardized questionnaires or rating scales.
Gathering information from multiple sources (e.g., family, teachers, if applicable).

Effective Online Treatment for ADHD

Managing ADHD often involves a multi-faceted approach. Patient To Prescription provides accessible online options focused on behavioral therapies and non-stimulant medication management to help you develop coping strategies and improve your daily life. Our providers will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan.

Important Policy on Medications: Patient To Prescription offers comprehensive ADHD care, including therapy and non-stimulant medication options such as Bupropion, Guanfacine, Atomoxetine, and Qelbree. Please be aware that Patient To Prescription does not prescribe controlled stimulant medications for ADHD (such as Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse, or Concerta) due to the complexities of online prescribing regulations for controlled substances. If you require or are currently on stimulant medication, we recommend seeking in-person care.

Behavioral Therapy: Strategies to help improve organizational skills, time management, impulse control, and problem-solving. This often includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tailored for ADHD.
Skills Training: Practical techniques for daily living, such as executive function coaching.
Non-Stimulant Medication Management: Prescription of non-controlled medications that can help alleviate ADHD symptoms.

If medication is deemed appropriate after a thorough evaluation, our providers may prescribe non-stimulant medications that can help manage ADHD symptoms. These may include:

Atomoxetine (Strattera): A selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor that can help with focus and impulsivity.
Guanfacine (Intuniv, Tenex): An alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that can help with impulsivity and hyperactivity.
Clonidine (Kapvay, Catapres): Another alpha-2 adrenergic agonist used for ADHD symptoms.

Certain Antidepressants (e.g., Bupropion/Wellbutrin): Sometimes prescribed off-label for ADHD, especially if there are co-occurring conditions like depression.

Establish routines and organizational systems.
Break down large tasks into smaller, manageable steps.
Use planners, reminders, and apps to stay on track.
