18世纪起的医学文献中就有描述过类似注意力不足过动症的症状[34]。自1970年起,就有出现有关注意力不足过动症疾病本身、其诊断及治疗方式的争议[35],争议和临床医师、教师、政策订定者、家长及媒体有关。争议焦点包括ADHD的病因,以及是否要用兴奋剂来治疗ADHD[36]。目前大部份的医疗人员都接受ADHD是儿童及成人的遗传性疾病,科学界的争议点则是在其诊断方式及治疗方式[37][38][39]。此疾病在1980年至1987年的正式名称是注意力缺失症(attention-deficit disorder,简称ADD),在更早期的名称是儿童过度活跃的反应(hyperkinetic reaction of childhood)[40][41]。
演化也可能是造成ADHD高比率的原因,特别是男性过动以及冲动的倾向[112],有人曾提出假说,认为女性比较容易被会冒险的男性所吸引,因此增加了基因库中爱好冲动及冒险的基因的比率[113]。其他人则认为这种倾向有助于男性面对有压力或是危险的环境(例如更有冲劲,从事探索行为)[112][113]。在特定情境下,ADHD倾向虽然对个体是有害的,但是对群体是有益的[112][113][114]。ADHD虽然对个体可能不利,但其高比例以及异质性也有利于群体的生殖健康,并且可以增加基因库的多样性,对群体有益[114]。在特定环境下,ADHD也可能对个体有利,例如对捕食者的反应更快,以及较好的狩猎技巧(英语:Hunter vs. farmer hypothesis)等[115]。
ADHD的社会建构理论(英语:social construct theory of ADHD)认为评断正常及异常的标准是社会建构的(是由社会中的所有人建立并且使其有效的,特别是医生、病患、家长、教师等),然后再主观的评估及判断要使用哪一种准则,以及有多少人会因此受到影响[134]。他们认为这是依DSM-IV标准诊断到的ADHD人数会是由ICD-10标准所诊断人数三至四倍的原因[22]。汤玛士·萨斯是ADHD社会建构理论的支持者,他认为ADHD是“发明出来的,之后取了这个名字”[135]。
不同的时期,描述注意力不足过动症的名词也有所不同:在1952年的DSM-I称为微细脑功能失常,在1968年的DSM-II则称为儿童活动亢进,在1980年的DSM-III称为注意力不足症(可能伴随过动,也可能没有)英文为 attention-deficit disorder (ADD) with or without hyperactivity[224],在1987年的DSM-III-R更名为注意力不足过动症,在1994年的DSM-IV将注意力不足过动症分为注意力散涣主导型(英语:Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder predominantly inattentive)、活动量过多型以及混合型[230],在2013年的DSM-5仍延用此一分类[12]。其他的名词有在1930年代使用的微细脑创伤[231],但因为不少病童都没有发觉有受过任何创伤,因此后来改名为微细脑功能失常。
ADHD药物能改善(非治愈)患者在生活中许多方面的功能性损伤(functional impairment ;可理解为应对能力的损伤)和生活品质(英语:Quality of life (healthcare))(例如:发生意外事故的风险)。但是ADHD患者的学习障碍和执行功能缺损(例如时间管理、生活秩序以及组织能力[237])等症状,即便在服用ADHD药物后,这些症状的改善程度极其有限或几乎没有效果。[238]

Hyperactivity: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia. MedlinePlus. 2018-07-09 [2018-07-15]. (原始内容存档于2017-07-15). Hyperactivity is often considered more of a problem for schools and parents than it is for the child. But many hyperactive children are unhappy, or even depressed. Hyperactive behavior may make a child a target for bullying, or make it harder to connect with other children. Schoolwork may be more difficult. Kids who are hyperactive are frequently punished for their behavior. Excessive movement (hyperkinetic behavior) often decreases as the child grows older. It may disappear entirely by adolescence.

Light blue in the ADHD sequence corresponds to the same thickness as light purple in the normal development sequence. The darkest areas in the lower part of the brain, which are not associated with ADHD, had either already peaked in thickness by the start of the study, or, for statistical reasons, were not amenable to defining an age of peak cortex thickness.

Although there is little direct evidence, changes in trace amines, in particular PE, have been identified as a possible factor for the onset of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). … Further, amphetamines, which have clinical utility in ADHD, are good ligands at trace amine receptors. Of possible relevance in this aspect is modafanil, which has shown beneficial effects in ADHD patients and has been reported to enhance the activity of PE at TAAR1. Conversely, methylphenidate, …showed poor efficacy at the TAAR1 receptor. In this respect it is worth noting that the enhancement of functioning at TAAR1 seen with modafanil was not a result of a direct interaction with TAAR1.

Although a substantial amount of research has focused on dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE), ADHD has also been linked to dysfunction in serotonin (5hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]), acetylcholine (ACH), opioid, and glutamate (GLU) pathways (Cortese, 2012; Maltezos et al., 2014; Blum et al., 2008; Potter et al., 2014; Elia et al., 2011).

Interestingly, a high intensity of reinforcement is effective in improving task performance in children with ADHD. Pharmacotherapy may also improve task persistence in these children. ...

Basal ganglia regions like the right globus pallidus, the right putamen, and the nucleus caudatus are structurally affected in children with ADHD. These changes and alterations in limbic regions like ACC and amygdala are more pronounced in non-treated populations and seem to diminish over time from child to adulthood.

Biederman, Joseph. New-Generation Long-Acting Stimulants for the Treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. Medscape. 2003 [2016-06-19]. (原始内容存档于2003-12-07). As most treatment guidelines and prescribing information for stimulant medications relate to experience in school-aged children, prescribed doses for older patients are lacking. Emerging evidence for both methylphenidate and Adderall indicate that when weight-corrected daily doses, equipotent with those used in the treatment of younger patients, are used to treat adults with ADHD, these patients show a very robust clinical response consistent with that observed in pediatric studies. These data suggest that older patients may require a more aggressive approach in terms of dosing, based on the same target dosage ranges that have already been established – for methylphenidate, 1–1.5–2 mg/kg/day, and for D,L-amphetamine, 0.5–0.75–1 mg/kg/day.... In particular, adolescents and adults are vulnerable to underdosing, and are thus at potential risk of failing to receive adequate dosage levels. As with all therapeutic agents, the efficacy and safety of stimulant medications should always guide prescribing behavior: careful dosage titration of the selected stimulant product should help to ensure that each patient with ADHD receives an adequate dose, so that the clinical benefits of therapy can be fully attained.

In such cases, symptoms of amphetamine psychosis commonly include paranoid and persecutory delusions as well as auditory and visual hallucinations in the presence of extreme agitation. More common (about 18%) is for frequent amphetamine users to report psychotic symptoms that are sub-clinical and that do not require high-intensity intervention ... About 5–15% of the users who develop an amphetamine psychosis fail to recover completely (Hofmann 1983) ... Findings from one trial indicate use of antipsychotic medications effectively resolves symptoms of acute amphetamine psychosis.

Duke University, Durham, North Carolina – Understanding and potentially treating ASD-ADHD combination. An estimated 40 to 60 percent of people with ASD have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which encompasses such symptoms as difficulty paying attention, problems controlling behavior and hyperactivity. Co-investigators Geraldine Dawson, Ph.D., and Scott Kollins, Ph.D., aim to learn how ADHD may influence the diagnosis and treatment of autism and plan to observe children who have ASD alone, ASD and ADHD, and ADHD alone and compare them to typically developing children. They will also test whether the stimulant medication used to treat ADHD will help children with both conditions.
