[Multimodal treatment concepts in children and adolescents with attention deficit/hyperactive disorder].

ADHD is usually associated with such comorbidities as aggression, dissocial behavior, anxiety, depression, and dyslexia or a poor ability to do sums. This fact must receive careful consideration both during the diagnostic work-up and when deciding an appropriate treatment strategy. In order to take proper account of these comorbidities when deciding treatment strategies, it must not be forgotten that in addition to medication with psychostimulants, multimodal therapeutic approaches also make good sense.
