Videos released this week:
- ADHD Kills People
- Buspar (Buspirone) - Can it Treat ADHD?
After a 1 minute recap of each video, I’ll be available for questions on these topics or any other related to Mental Health.
- ADHD Kills People:
A recent comprehensive study in Britain documented that those with an ADHD diagnosis died 7-9 years earlier than those in the general population - a rate comparable to that found with other major mental health conditions. The results should not have been surprising, because numerous studies document that ADHD approximately doubles the rate of dying from accidents or suicides.
- Buspar (Buspirone) - Can it Treat ADHD?
Buspirone binds to serotonin 1-A receptor receptors and is FDA approved for treating anxiety. It also helps antidepressants work more effectively, and is occasionally used to help with ADHD, either augmenting other medications or alone. Side effects are usually mild.
