Non-stimulant and Stimulant Combinations for ADHD Treatment

Combining a non-stimulant with a stimulant medication can be beneficial for ADHD treatment. Using an extended-release form of an alpha agonist like guan fasting or clonidine in combination with a stimulant is FDA-approved and has shown to improve ADHD symptoms and executive functioning. Additionally, the medication Mementine, typically used for Alzheimer's, has shown improvements in executive functioning and social cognition in individuals with ADHD, especially those with comorbid autism or autism spectrum disorder.
