TRIVIA QUESTION OF THE WEEK

This week's trivia question: According to recent research reported in JAMA Network Open, more students from middle school to high school are misusing prescription drugs for this disorder, amid an increasing number of children being diagnosed with the condition in the United States. At some schools, as many as 1 in 4 students reported misusing drugs for this disorder in the previous year — meaning they used the medications without a doctor’s prescription or for nonmedical reasons. What is the disorder?
