Treatment options include a mix of stimulants (e.g., methylphenidates, amphetamines) and nonstimulants (e.g., dopaminergic\/noradrenergic agents, adrenergic receptor agonists). Despite many available\u2014and largely efficacious\u2014pharmacological treatments, a large proportion of patients have inadequate control of their <abbr title=\"attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder\">ADHD<\/abbr> symptoms, including over the long term. Overall, treatment is highly individualized and complex; thus, understanding drivers of treatment decision-making is key for current players in this market to help optimize uptake of their agents and for new players entering this large yet generic market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUESTIONS ANSWERED<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What factors help U.S. physicians determine if a pediatric <abbr title=\"attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder\">ADHD<\/abbr> patient is fit for prescription drug treatment?
