"The White Version of Cheating?" Ethical and Social Equity Concerns of Cognitive Enhancing Drug Users in Higher Education.
This article explores how nonmedical use of ADHD medications by healthy students is widely seen—especially by those with genuine ADHD diagnoses—as unethical and unfair. Students with ADHD express frustration that their necessary treatment is being misused as a performance enhancer by peers who often have greater social and economic privilege. This off-label use not only trivializes their medical needs but also reinforces inequality, creates stigma, and fuels suspicion from healthcare providers, making it harder for them to access proper care.
