AMEcast #002 - The question of ADD and Medication - Aviation Medicine Podcast

15th December 2006

About ADD in response to an email from a listener…..the major issue is whether ADD has ever been diagnosed….and in the case of this 30 something, I’m dubious.

Dr. Chien answers an email inquiry from a businessman who has been taking Adderall which is commonly prescribed for Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). The writer is an inactive private pilot who wants to actively fly. Dr. Chien has some advice and strong opinions on how to handle the diagnosis of ADD.
