I’m not actually familiar with the facilities in Vizag. You could try on inquiring in your place for that. There is no "cure" for ADHD, however, a lot of treatment approaches may alleviate or significantly decrease ADHD symptoms that could be available in your place:
Medications
Stimulant medications have been found to be efficient in alleviating ADHD symptoms. Common stimulants include Ritalin, Dexedrine, Metadate, Concerta, Focalin, and Adderall.
Behavioral Strategies and Interventions
ADHD, while not caused by environmental factors, could certainly be influenced by them.
Parent Training
ADHD could be exhausting. Parents dealing with children with ADHD might benefit from education and training.
Social Skills Training
Social skills training focuses on helping an individual with ADHD learn new, more suitable behaviors and ways of interacting with others.
Counseling/Psychotherapy
Counseling and/or psychotherapy provides a person with ADHD a place to process feelings and develop strategies for dealing with the effects of ADHD.
Coaching
An ADHD coach partners with their clients to create every day structure and organization while providing support and encouragement to set goals and rewards and keep them focused even when obstacles occur.
Support Groups
People, either loved ones of those with ADHD like parents, spouses, etc., as well as individuals with ADHD may find strength, education, and encouragement in support groups.
