"Cutting Edge ADHD Medication from Around the World," presented by Lance Steinberg, MD

Join us to learn about the newest cutting-edge treatments of ADHD, motivation, and executive functioning challenges from around the world. This presentation will emphasize the psychopharmacology of all age groups, and has been tailored for the non-physician audience-- but sprinkled with exciting critical nuance presented in a fun and humorous fashion that holds secret surprises even for the advanced clinician.

Objectives: at the end of this presentation, participants will 1) be able to identify which countries prohibit certain US medications; 2) learn about the use of medicine in the form of patches for children; and 3) learn about customizing a medication regimen specifically for executive function issues.
