No; no study has linked ADHD with having a lower IQ than average. ADHD affects motivation and focus which do not have a direct impact on intelligence. There are certain celebrities with ADHD who credit their success to having the disorder.
it affects the way people think and percieve things. it doesnt make them stupid most people with ADD are very bright and most people dont kno that. it might be hard for them to understand somethings but when explained another way they will totaly understand it. they just thing differently than other people. People with ADHD have it because of brain abnormalities--they have certain smaller brain structures (such as the prefrontal cortex), delayed activation, less activation in areas that would normally be part of activity (for example, use other parts of the brain rather than the primary structure for a task), and they have impaired neurotransmitter transportation. So signals are really impaired in an ADHD brain, so even though people with ADHD have (on average) above average intelligence, they have a hard time coordinating all those smarts. More cognitively, it affects the way they plan and execute goal oriented tasks (i.e., doing homework, making appointments... getting out the door...). The above person is right, they have to approach things different ways (likely because they are compensating with better functioning brain regions) but they are really intelligent.
ADHD primarily affects the brain, leading to difficulties in executive functioning, attention, and impulse control. However, it can also impact other organs indirectly, such as the heart due to potential risks associated with stimulant medications used to treat ADHD.
Biological treatments for ADHD include stimulant medications (such as methylphenidate and amphetamine) that can help improve focus and attention. Non-stimulant medications like atomoxetine and guanfacine are also used to treat ADHD by targeting different neurotransmitters in the brain. In some cases, doctors may recommend behavioral therapy or dietary interventions, but medication is often a primary form of treatment for ADHD.

ADHD is a made up illness, to explain an active mind in children. Remember pharm drug companies make money by keeping you on drugs and thats just what they try to do. A good example of this is the billions given for cancer research every year. But only drugs can be legally called a cure. The only thing they want is to take as much of your money as they can before you die. The FDA is just a division of the drug companies that own our political system
