CONCLUSION: Musical hallucinations can occur in children with ADHD even in the absence of hearing impairment, epilepsy, or psychosis. Early recognition, comprehensive evaluation, and multidisciplinary management are essential. When symptoms cause significant distress, low-dose risperidone may be an effective treatment. Recognizing the structured and nonpsychotic nature of musical hallucination in neurodevelopmental contexts may help avoid misdiagnosis and guide appropriate intervention.
