    AbstractAttention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most prevalent and frequent neurodevelopmental disorder in neuropediatrics, child psychiatry and child psychology consultations. The greater awareness of this condition, the information and, above all, the socio-cultural acceptance, has led to an earlier diagnosis, leading to more timely and effective treatment. Individualizing each case through systematic tools such as neuropsychological studies and their neuroanatomical and neurobiochemical correlation, related to ADHD, together with algorithms that analyze executive functions, is essential to indicate the optimal pharmacological treatment, together with the application of appropriate non-pharmacological therapies. Multimodal treatment, with cognitive behavioral intervention and pharmacological treatment, is the most effective therapeutic approach.
