ABSTRACT
Absence of concentration, hyperactivity, and impulsive behaviour are characteristics of Attention
Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), a common neurodevelopmental disorder. Despite being
thought of as a neurodevelopmental disorder with childhood start (ADHD) is a common and serious
health conditions in adulthood. The major characteristics of ADHD are outlined in this concise review,
including its complex etiology involving genetic and environmental factors, changing diagnostic
standards, a range of treatment options (pharmacological, behavioral, and psychosocial), and exciting
new directions for research in the future, including digital interventions and novel therapies. In order to
improve assessment and intervention techniques and, eventually, improve the lives of those impacted
by the illness, it is crucial to have a complete understanding of ADHD.
