ADHD Medications Make Kids Targets for Bullying, Study Shows


Researchers found children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder who took medications were more likely to be bullied, compared to those who didn't take such medications. The findings in the Journal of Pediatric Psychology, based on almost 5,000 public school students, showed that 1 in 5 of those who took ADHD medications were approached to sell or share them, and half of those approached said they sold or shared the drugs.
