Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a medical condition characterised by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that is more frequent and severe than observed in individuals at a comparable level of development.
ADHD affects millions of children and adults. The illness, most common in children, is generally first diagnosed during the primary school years. Today, it affects approximately 3% to 7% of the school-age population, with boys diagnosed 3 to 4 times more than girls. Without the proper attention, ADHD can continue through adolescence and into adulthood.
