There are probably dozens you could take, but Ritalin is the most common. I've heard some complaints about side effects with that one, but give it a shot if a doctor has ordered it.

Do people with ADHD have to take medication?

You don't have to take medication, but, depending on the severity, I would highly recommend it. Medication helps so much, with everything from remembering to brush one's hair in the morning to getting straight As. I have ADHD, I know what it's like, and to me, medication is a blessing on many levels. Without it, I would barely have any of the wonderful things I have today.
