I am sure the doctor is not a psychiatrist, kindly get your son's ADHD evaluated in detail, ADHD needs to be confirmed by psychological and psychiatric evaluation and sizodon is not the drug to be used. It needs to be treated with special group of medications. Also sizodon starts from 0.5 mg to 4 mg tablet and can cause serious side effects when dosing is not done by experts, so kindly consult a nearby psychiatrist who evaluates child as well. All the best.
