NHS adult care
The NHS team will explain the treatment available within your referral pathway, its funding and current waiting times.
Treatment & support
ADHD treatment and support
The next step after assessment depends on your needs, preferences and clinical circumstances. We explain appropriate options and agree a plan with you.
60-second test: adults 18+.
Practical support
Recommendations may include changes to everyday routines, the learning or working environment, and ways to manage organisation and attention. For children, support may also involve parents, carers and education settings.
We distinguish between information included in your care and additional services, such as therapy or structured coaching, that may need to be arranged separately.
Medication and titration
If medication is appropriate, a prescribing clinician reviews the relevant health information and discusses the options before treatment begins.
Titration is the initial period of adjusting treatment and reviewing its effects. Your care plan explains the reviews and monitoring required, and what to do if you have concerns.
Ongoing reviews
Treatment needs can change over time. Your clinician will explain when reviews are needed and how physical monitoring will be arranged.
Contact the clinical team if your treatment or health circumstances change rather than waiting for a routine review.
Shared care with your GP
Once medication is stable, shared care may allow your GP to take over prescribing while specialist review continues. We can request this where appropriate, but acceptance cannot be guaranteed.
If the GP declines, we explain what that means for your particular pathway and discuss the next steps. Private patients should allow for ongoing private prescribing and pharmacy costs unless an alternative arrangement is agreed.
Ages 6–17
Children and young people
Children's treatment is planned around their age, needs and development. We involve the young person and their parent or carer appropriately, and explain how information from home and education can support care.
