CBD & ADHD: What Parents Need to Know

🌿 CBD oil is gaining popularity, but is it a safe option for children with ADHD?

While some parents report positive outcomes with CBD oil for managing ADHD symptoms, it’s important to note that:

- There is limited scientific evidence supporting its efficacy in children.
- CBD is not a regulated treatment for ADHD in Australia.
- Potential side effects and interactions with other medications should be carefully considered.

Always consult a paediatrician before trying new treatments. Let’s make informed decisions about our children’s health together!

Busting Myths About ADHD Medication

🧠 There are many misconceptions about ADHD medications for children. Let’s set the record straight!

Common Myths Debunked:

▶️ Myth: ADHD medication makes children 'zombies.'
Fact: Properly prescribed medication aims to improve focus and reduce impulsivity, not change a child’s personality.

▶️ Myth: ADHD is over diagnosed, and medications are over-prescribed.
Fact: ADHD is a well-researched neurodevelopmental condition. Medication is one of several treatment options, and it's prescribed when beneficial.

▶️ Myth: Medication is a 'quick fix.'
Fact: Medication helps manage symptoms but is most effective when combined with behavioural therapy and lifestyle changes.

It’s essential to discuss all options with a healthcare professional to find the best path forward for your child.

Chronic Cough in Kids: When to Worry

🤧 Is your child's cough lingering for weeks? It might be more than just a common cold. Especially if it is a wet sounding cough!

A chronic cough in children can be a sign of an underlying health issue such as asthma, allergies, or even reflux.

Common causes include:
- Asthma
- Respiratory tract infections
- Post-nasal drip from allergies
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

If your child’s cough has persisted for more than three weeks, it’s time to see a paediatrician.

Let’s work together to identify the cause and find the right treatment to get them back to feeling their best!

Understanding Asthma in Children

🌬️ Is your child wheezing or having trouble breathing? It could be asthma!
Asthma is a common chronic condition in children, causing the airways to become inflamed and narrow, leading to difficulty in breathing.

Signs to watch for include:

- Frequent coughing, especially at night
- Wheezing or a whistling sound when breathing
- Shortness of breath or rapid breathing
- Chest tightness

If your child exhibits these symptoms, it’s essential to consult with a paediatrician for an accurate diagnosis and management plan. Early intervention can make a significant difference!

Let's help our little ones breathe easy. 🌈💙
