Best Answer

The main one is stimulant medication like Ritalin and others. In addition, therapy or training in self-management, planning, and developing habits like using a pocket notebook are important as well. In adults, some antidepressants (NDRI's like Welbutrin) can sometimes help if stimulants are not working.
