This question is very hard to answer. Is he already taking an ADHD medication? If not, the doctor will choose one, probably a stimulant to start with. It will probably be a Ritalin or Concerta. Concerta is the same thing as Ritalin except it comes in a special shell that slowly releases the medicine inside over the course of about ten hours or so. First, however, your son has to have his medical history reviewed and, possibly, some heart testing done. These medicines are very safe, but they do carry risks of cardiac side effects when taken by people that are already at risk for such problems.
If that doesn't work well enough, the physican will probably upgrade his medication to Adderall.
I can't answer questions about Straterra for you. I do know its not as effective as stimulant medications such as Ritalin, Concerta or Adderall.
As a disclaimer, I'm not a doctor or a nurse. I just have an interest in ADHD. I encourage you to seek more information about ADHD and its treatment options through the internet and from your doctor.

No; excessive lying is not associated with either ADHD nor austism.

There are many reasons that would cause hyperactivity. Some people react to things differently but sugar and caffeine are at the top of the list. Limit these and you will see a difference.
