Most parents with ADHD children ask this very question and the short answer is ‘no’, at least if we are thinking of psychostimulant drugs which are now household names, such as Vyvanse, Strattera and Ritalin, just to name a few. The shocking fact of the matter is that, according to an editorial in the Archives of Internal Medicine by Dr John Ioannidis of University of Ioannina School of Medicine in Greece, effects from drugs are “neglected, restricted, distorted, and silenced”. He is talking about all types of drugs here, not just those for ADHD. Another disturbing fact about the ‘ ADHD meds without side effects’ debate is that many of them carry the FDA black box warning which is the maximum for any drug, rather similar to those on cigarette packets. Like the smokers, this is not a deterrent for the doctors either, who persist in prescribing these mind altering drugs for children with ADHD.

The second shocking fact is that a very important study has revealed that after 3 years of being prescribed the drugs Ritalin and Concerta, a group of children who were studied and observed, it was found that there was no evidence at all that there was an improvement in their behavior. ADHD meds without side effects perhaps is a pipedream but when they do not produce effective results, you begin to wonder. One of the authors of the report William Pelham is a highly respected ADHD expert but he will not be offered any contracts with the drug companies ! So, they had wasted three years of their lives and their ADHD was not cured at all. In addition, the problems about appetite and weight loss, insomnia had not disappeared but were rather aggravating the situation.

Looking at ADHD homeopathic remedies, the situation changes dramatically. First of all, these remedies are manufactured to the highest possible standards and with the purest ingredients, if you deal with a reputable company. Secondly, there are no side effects and there are no long term health risks either so in this case we can say that ADHD meds without side effects really do exist, provided we use homeopathy. You will be shocked to know that some drug companies actually pay to do research which sets out to discredit the effectiveness of these remedies. However, millions of parents cannot be wrong. If this type of therapy is combined with ADHD behavior therapy, then the chances of your ADHD child growing up to lead a happier and more fulfilled life are much greater, without ever having to worry about ADHD medications with less side effects. Do not miss out on this chance.
