Therapeutic compositions and methods for treatment of attention deficit disorder (ADD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) include dosage forms that deliver a therapeutic amount of active drug in a delayed and controlled release formulation. The dosage form can be administered at night and drug release is delayed for from 5 to 7 hours or longer, followed by an ascending release rate. When administered at night the composition provides early morning improvement in symptoms of ADHD and sustained improvement over a period of at least 12 hours.
