Abstract

Requests for the evaluation of potential adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is on the rise across primary care clinics. Many health care providers, however, may feel ill equipped to diagnose and manage adults presenting with inattention and impulsivity. The diagnosis of ADHD is often complicated by medical and psychiatric conditions that can contribute to inattention symptoms. In this article, the authors provide a pragmatic clinical approach for evaluating and managing adult ADHD in the primary care setting.
