Clinical Trial Description

The evaluation of new therapies in adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) may be clinically useful. Rhodiola rosea is an herbal medicine used for centuries in various medical conditions. Many randomized controlled trials have evaluated its usefulness in stress and fatigue. There were benefits in attention in some of these studies. Mild side effects and beneficial antioxidant properties make reasonable an assessment of its potential benefits in adults with ADHD. To our knowledge, Rhodiola rosea has never been studied in adults with ADHD. ;
