attention Deficit Disorder: A Dubious Diagnosis?

Since 1988, Ciba-Geigy, maker of the popular A.D.D. drug ritalin, has quietly propped up the national A.D.D. 'support group' CHADD (CH.A.D.D.) (for Children and Adults with A.D.D.) with more than $1 million in grants and valuable services. As the Merrow Report reported, CHADD (CH.A.D.D.) has been distributing misleading information to hundreds of thousands of parents and teachers that exaggerates the benefits of drug therapy, including ritalin.

attention Deficit Disorder: A Dubious Diagnosis?

 The dramatic growth in the number of children labeled as having attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D.) has been largely man-made. This program--and subsequent coverage of the issue on ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and NPR--seems to have slowed down the 'bandwagon.'

 
The result: a 500% increase in the number of children labeled and medicated since 1990 [now reported as a 700% increase in 1998 -- see Running on Ritalin by Lawrence H. Diller, M.D. ].
 
This report produced results: the Drug Enforcement Administration put a stop to CHADD's efforts to relax controls on Ritalin, the US Department of Education withdrew videos that we discovered had been taken over by CHADD's leadership, and CHADD appears to have lost thousands of members; according to Newsweek, 200 families dropped out of the Queens Chapter alone.
