Assessing the benefits of homeopathic treatment for ADHD: A comprehensive review of clinical and pathophysiological perspectives

Abstract

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, persisting into adulthood in many cases. Conventional treatments, such as stimulant medications and behavioral therapies, though effective, often carry significant side effects. Homeopathy, known for its holistic treatment methods, offers individualized remedies based on the principle of "like cures like," aiming to restore balance without the common side effects of conventional medications. This article reviews the clinical perspectives, pathophysiology, conventional treatments, and explores the therapeutic potential of homeopathy for ADHD.
