Ritalin can lead to problems with bone health in children

Ritalin and other stimulant pharmaceuticals are often a treatment for ADHD.

There has always been a concern that these stimulants may have an adverse effect on bone growth in children.

Now, an evidence based medicine study presented at the 98th Annual Endocrine Society meeting in Boston, USA has determined that bone mineral content is lower in children who use pharmaceutical stimulants.

Therefore, any Integrative Medicine resources for treatment of ADHD children should include the monitoring of bone health and for many ADHD cases the integration of Complementary and Alternative Medicine therapies including food and nutrition advice and the incorporation of best quality vitamins and supplements will lead to improved results.
