Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most frequent neurodevelopmental disorders in childhood and adolescence, which is typically first, diagnosed in childhood and often persists into adulthood. It is one of the most prevalent causes of children being sent to psychology and psychiatric clinics, Children with ADHD may struggle to focus, lack self-control and impulsive behaviors, or exhibit excessive activity. Hyperactivity, one of the main symptoms of ADHD, can lead to a child’s psychological and social incompatibility at home, school, and community. This case report presents a 5-year-old boy with delayed milestones, extreme restlessness, marked hyperactivity, and severely disturbed speech limited to a few incomprehensible words. The child was extremely sensitive to noise, exhibited obstinate constipation, had an excessive fear of darkness, and showed peculiar behaviors such as biting and pulling his mother’s hair. He constantly desired to go out, refused to remain at one place, and displayed a striking affinity for playing in water. A detailed case-taking and repertorial analysis led to the prescription of SULPHUR 1M/1 DOSE followed by ** Medorrhinum 1M**, which was administered as the constitutional remedy and repeated as required according to the circumstances at different stages of follow-up. Gradual improvement was noted in restlessness, speech expression, attention span, bowel regularity, and reduction of destructive behaviors. This case highlights the importance of individualized constitutional prescribing in homeopathic management of ADHD, demonstrating significant scope in improving behavioral, emotional, and developmental outcomes.
