Iron Supplementation on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in Children

Objective To evaluate the effect of iron on the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, treated with methylphenidate.

Results Almost all CPRS subscales improved in the ferrous sulfate group from the baseline to the endpoint, although only the changes in conduct subscale scores were significant (p = 0.003). There was no significant difference in score changes between two groups in intergroup comparison. Also, the score of learning problems (p = 0.007) in the first six weeks, and conduct (p = 0.023) and psychosomatic (p = 0.018) subscales in the second six weeks were improved in the ferrous sulfate group compared with the placebo group.
