Emerging Topics Webinar Series

Stay up to date on important topics and trends impacting psychiatry by participating in APA's new Emerging Topics Webinar Series. Presented by specialists across the field, these monthly webinars will explore a range of diverse, pertinent topics and offer a chance to interact with peers and subject matter experts. 

This practical review summarizes highlights of ingestible and noningestible non-pharmacological treatments for ADHD, ranging from evidence-based conventional behavioral treatments to risky ones that should be restricted to specific indications. In between are numerous treatments, most of which are often referred to as complementary and alternative, that have promising but often inconclusive evidence. Principles for judging the evidence will be outlined. A method of deciding clinical applicability will be explained, with advice whether to encourage, discourage, or tolerate a treatment desired by a patient or family
