In particular the invention concerns the treatment and/or prevention of ADHD, ADD and autism spectrum disorders. The present inventors have developed a method for prophylaxis or treatment of such symptoms and/or pathologies associated with a deficiency in essential amino acid absorption and/or metabolism, which method, stated generally, relies on the administration of nicotinamide, typically in a long-acting formulation so as to overcome the deficiencies of existing formulations, which have proven unsuitable for effective treatment.
