Some ADHD medications can be habit-forming, and individuals who use them may develop a tolerance or dependence over time. However, when used as prescribed under the guidance of a healthcare professional, the risk of addiction is relatively low.
It's important to always follow the prescribed dosage and to talk to your healthcare provider if you have any concerns about the potential for addiction or misuse. In some cases, non-stimulant medications may be recommended for individuals who have a history of substance abuse or who are at increased risk for addiction.
