Shire and ADHD

Our commitment
  • We aim to enable people with life-altering conditions to lead better lives.
  • We’re committed to developing new and future generations of ADHD treatment.
  • Shire’s acquisition of UCB’s methylphenidate range is the first step in our ongoing commitment to advocate for better outcomes for those impacted by ADHD in the UK.

Our support

  • We have various initiatives underway to raise understanding and awareness of ADHD amongst families, caregivers, educators and patients.
  • We intend to continue working to raise the understanding and awareness of ADHD and create a single, comprehensive source of information and resources for families.
  • We actively participate in major medical associations, conferences, presentations and education programmes and support independent organisations and key patient groups.

Our future

  • We are continuing to develop treatments for children, adolescents and adults which allow the specialist physician to meet the unique needs of individuals with ADHD.
