Doctors think that between 30 and 70 percent of children diagnosed
with ADHD will continue to have some symptoms of the disorder as
adults. Most children diagnosed with the disorder benefit from appropriate
treatment, although they have a higher risk of alcohol and drug
abuse in adolescence. As many as 65 percent may continue to have problematic
symptoms of ADHD that keep them from reaching their full
academic or work potential in adult life.
