Kids with sensory integration or sensory processing disorders can look like they have ADHD. Meds will not necessarily help a kid with sensory issues, anyway (unless they also happen to have ADHD!). Anxiety, which is often present in kids with sensory issues, can also look like hyperactivity in children.
I would take your child to a very good Occupational Therapist if possible before trying meds. And I am not anti-meds. I take them myself for ADD.
