Yeah, it's pretty interesting how many ADD/ADHD meds have completely different effects for those with or without the disorder.
As I've read more into this, I've found that "better" indicators of the disorder is more around impulsive behavior (lack of concentration being such a difficult thing to quantify, nobody's concentrated!). Dr Charles Barkley [0] has a decent amount of talks on youtube about this misnaming (and other aspects like hereditary natures).
Depending on where along the ASD spectrum your daughter might be, this might be harder to figure out though. I can understand being a bit skeptical about this.
I hope you can work out what's best for your daughter (and hopefully keep her engaged and aware of what's out there).
