hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 7.2% of
children worldwide. The conventional treatment for ADHD includes
stimulant medications, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes.

alternative and complementary therapies, such as Ayurveda, for the
treatment of ADHD. This case study examines the effectiveness of an
Ayurvedic intervention in a 7-year-old child with ADHD.
