Henry Shelford, CEO and Co-Founder of ADHD UK provided comment for the article.
“Medication is “life-changing” for those with the condition – and taking it away can have disastrous consequences for individuals with ADHD. The NHS should have realised that this was happening and had a plan in place. Instead, people are only finding out when their pharmacy can’t supply. They’ve been left stranded with no support. Medication is carefully given with dosage and type worked out over months. The idea it can be chopped and changed is wrong. This is devastating for individuals across the country and will be life-changing for some. People with ADHD are being let down by the NHS – this is just the latest way in which we are being failed.”
