Getting kids to eat enough: the impact of ADHD medication
If your child takes medication for ADHD, mealtimes can suddenly feel a whole lot harder.
Many children with ADHD are prescribed stimulant medication as part of their treatment plan. While these medications can be incredibly helpful for attention, regulation, and participation at school, a very common side effect is reduced appetite. For parents, this often raises big worries around nutrition, growth, and energy levels—especially if your child is already a picky or selective eater.
You’re not imagining it… appetite changes are real, and they can be managed.
What parents often notice
Children on ADHD medication may show changes in how and when they eat. Common signs include:
Little or no interest in food at mealtimes
Eating much smaller portions than usual
Preferring to snack or graze rather than sit for meals
Feeling nauseous or “off” around food
Over time, this can make it harder to meet nutritional needs for growth, brain development, and energy.
Practical tips to support nutrition
The goal isn’t to force food—but to work with your child’s appetite patterns.
Front-load nutrition: Encourage a bigger, nutrient-dense meal before medication is given, when appetite is usually strongest (often breakfast). Think protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates.
Watch liquid timing: Drinks can quickly fill little tummies. Where possible, delay fluids until solids are eaten, or offer drinks alongside or after medication rather than before meals.
Consider supplements (with guidance): Some families explore fish oil supplementation, which may support focus and potentially reduce the required medication dosage for some children. Always discuss this with a health professional before starting.
Every child is different
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Appetite changes, food preferences, sensory sensitivities, and medication timing all play a role—and they’re unique to your child.
That’s where personalised support really matters.
