How Can Clinicians Collaborate to Improve ADHD Medication Adherence?
Thomas E. Brown, PhD, presented about this topic at the 2018 Annual Meeting of The American Professional Society of ADHD and Related Disorders (APSARD) in Washington, DC, in January. Studies show that among both children and adults, there is low adherence to medication treatment for ADHD. Many patients do not take the medications consistently, Brown said, or they don’t get prescriptions refilled. There are several reasons for this, he said in his presentation called "Collaboration Between Prescribers and Other Clinicians In Managing ADHD."
