Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.

Medications can certainly help with ADHD. Typical medications used to improve attention include Vyvanse, Concerta, or Adderall. These are Schedule II Controlled Substances closely monitored by the Drug Enforcement Administration, so you will require an in-person consultation and in-person prescription by a licensed physician. I would seek this out with the above recommendations for medications to improve attention.
