Mishka, we had her on medication for a while, but have pulled her off of it because she's made tremendous progress this year. That sounds strange but she is doing much better this year.
That's great. But to improve her progress, do some googling. There are some excellent studies and results pointing to diet and natural supplements in treatment. Just like with depression and other maladies, kids/people with ADD/ADHD are not suffering because their brains/bodies are deficient in certain pharmaceuticals but, rather, often deficient in certain vitamins, amino acids, minerals, etc. You might want to start with The Life Extension Foundation (www.lef.org) and do some searching. They are the best, oldest leading-edge nutritional pioneers and researchers. Their studies and findings got me off depression meds with simple, affordable amino acid supplements, fwiw.
