Abstract: This invention relates to a method of treating Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder by orally administering to a subject a composition containing a Radix Polygalae (Polygala tenuifolia Willd) extract (such as PDC-1421). A solid dosage form of the composition can be prepared into the gelatin capsule. The oral administration of the composition in healthy volunteers was safe and well-tolerated for the daily dose from 380 mg to 3800 mg. The composition can be administered chronically over at least 25 days; the daily dose is administered once per day, twice per day, or three times per day, wherein each dose is 380-760 mg of the botanical extract.
