The number of UK adults taking medication for Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has risen twenty-fold since 2010, with women seeing the most "dramatic" increase, according to a major new study.
Researchers found that while only 0.01 per cent of Britons over 25 were medicated for ADHD in 2010, the figure surged to 0.2 per cent by 2023, marking the highest relative increase among all countries studied.
