title: [My child is so restless].
abstract: Hyperkinetic or attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD) are characterized by three symptoms: attention deficit, hyperactivity and impulsiveness. For some patients, intensive, continuous counselling or behaviour therapy leads to adequate success. If this is not effective, drug treatment using stimulants such as methylphenidate or the selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor atomoxetine is indicated.
