And unlike methheads, people with ADHD commit less crime when they take their medication as prescribed: https://acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jcpp.13997Idk
Idk about off label use. But I do know there are MD’s, police officers, and all other sorts of productive members in society prescribed adhd medicine . And I’ve had crackhead neighbors, they are not the same shit. A crackhead will spend hours in the floor looking for a crack rock, pawning electronics, stealing shit out of cars, selling foodstamps, beg you to front them money or sell you old shit. Prostitution, all sorts of crazy shit.
High ADHD medication adherence was associated with a reduced risk of committing a minor offense of between 33% and 38% compared to low adherence periods of ≥3 months (hazard ratio
0.67, confidence interval [CI] 0.64–0.71) or ≥6 months (HR 0.62, CI 0.59–0.65). The reduction in risk can likely be attributed to ADHD medication, given the absence of effects of SSRIs and no reverse causation. The reduction rate remained between 16% and 55% per sex, stimulant versus non-stimulant medication, different offense categories and further sensitivity analyses.
