Authorizes and directs the department of health to conduct a study on drugs prescribed for school age children with ADD and ADHD

This bill directs the state Department of Health (with other agencies) to study medications prescribed to school-age children with ADD/ADHD. It specifically examines side effects of drugs like psychostimulants and antidepressants, the accuracy of diagnosis methods, medication appropriateness, and potential disparities in diagnoses across different groups. The study must be completed within two years, with findings reported to the governor and legislature. It does not change current medication practices but mandates a review of existing treatment approaches for this population.
