ADHD Medication Company Websites


See also my Articles on ADHD Medications for People with ADHD.

Because Large Companies frequently change the structure of their site, similiar to governments constantly reorganizing to give off the illusion of change, I'm just including the URL of the companies home page. From there you can either click on products or diseases or condition, or search for the latest information on their medication. I'm not suggesting that if you decide to research a medication the only site to check is the maker of that medication but it is one of the places you should check out.

I'm listing the major ADHD drugs. There are other drugs used to treat ADHD, especially if one has comorbid disorders, that may be used in place of these drugs or in combination with these drugs. Since people have unique biochemistries and unique symptoms it's important to discuss your needs with your doctor, just because your friend Joe says drug x worked for him it DOES NOT mean it will necessarily work for you.

* SSNI= selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. Similar to SSRI selective Seretonin reuptake inhibitors i.e., prozac but it works on the neurotransmitter norepinephrine instead of Serotonin.

There are 3 major neurotransmitters involved with ADHD

Dopamine

Norepinephrine

Serotonin

ADHD medications work by affecting the levels of these neurotransmitters.
