Abstract:
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is not exclusively limited to childhood and adolescence, but it often persists in adults, where its prevalence in the general population is estimated at around 4% to 5%. It is accompanied by significant psychological, social and professionals. It is essential to ensure the detection of this disorder in adults. Indeed, psychostimulants have demonstrated therapeutic efficacy by numerous controlled studies. ADHD treatment should have the primary objective of improving attentional abilities and reducing impulsive behavior.
