The Executive Function Podcast

Meds for ADHD: Are they safe? Do they work? Explore perspectives with pediatrician Dr. Walt Karniski


Listen Later

Hey team! 

Off the bat: meds are tricky, and this episode will not push medications. What you will learn from hearing from Dr. Walt Karniski is some honest perspective and stories of other parents' journeys in exploring ADHD medications for their children. Walt personalizes the struggles and challenges perceptions as he reflects on his 40 years as a developmental pediatrician. I hadn't personally considered that what we call "Side effects" may actually be the "come down" from medications. There's lots to think about when deciding if ADHD medications are right for your family and your child. Join us in exploring on today's show. 

All my love, 

Sarah
