The short answer
Can a GP prescribe ADHD medication in NSW?
Yes, for some people. Since 1 September 2025, NSW GPs with approved training and NSW Health authority can continue ADHD medicine for people aged 6 and over. You need a formal diagnosis, and your treatment must already be stable.
Starting ADHD medicine for the first time needs an endorsed GP or a specialist. At Rosedale, Dr Jaspreet Saini is our endorsed GP.
Your GP decides at each visit whether a script is safe and allowed under NSW rules. A script is never guaranteed.
| Your situation | Who can prescribe | Where to go |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnosed, stable dose for 3+ months | A trained continuation GP | This page |
| Diagnosed, never started medicine | An endorsed GP or specialist | Initiation |
| Not diagnosed | An endorsed GP or specialist assesses first | GP ADHD diagnosis |
Before you book
Continuation is for treatment that is established and stable.
A diagnosis on its own is not enough. Our GPs also need to see your medicine, your dose, how long it has been stable and your recent script plan. This follows the NSW ADHD in general practice reforms. Not diagnosed yet? Start with a GP ADHD diagnosis.
Taking a stable dose now
You have a formal diagnosis, you take ADHD medicine now, and your dose has been the same for at least three months.

Questions before booking
ADHD GP Sydney: continuation prescribing FAQs.
Can a new patient book ADHD continuation by telehealth?
How recent must my ADHD specialist letter be?
Your specialist letter must be dated within the last 12 months. It should confirm your diagnosis, medicine, dose and that you are stable. Please send it at least 48 hours before your visit.
Will I get an ADHD prescription at my first continuation visit?
Not always. Your GP may need test results, more records or NSW Health approval before writing a script. A script is never guaranteed.
How often are ADHD continuation reviews needed?
Most stable patients have a check-up every three to six months. The timing depends on your medicine, how stable you are, your age, what needs monitoring and how long your script lasts.
What if I have run out of or lost my ADHD medicine?
Book the earliest suitable check-up, and contact your current prescriber if you can. Booking a visit does not guarantee an early or replacement script.
