ADHD management in QLD general practice: HealthCert GP Update, 2026

In this HealthCert GP Update, Dr Simone Gonzo unpacks what has changed for Queensland GPs in the management of ADHD in primary care — providing a clear, practical overview tailored for busy GPs.

What you will learn

From 1 December 2025, Queensland became the first Australian state to allow suitably trained GPs to initiate, modify and continue stimulant medication for adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This represents a significant shift in scope of practice, with important clinical, regulatory and documentation considerations for GPs.

In this HealthCert GP Update webinar and Q&A, Dr Simone Gonzo walks through the practical implications of the new Queensland framework, focusing on how adult ADHD can be diagnosed, managed and reviewed safely in general practice.
