No you will not be allowed to join. Even if by chance they would issue you a waiver you have to be off your medication for at least a year.

The Air Force, Navy and Coast Guard won't take you. The Army and Marines can waiver anything. You'll just have to ask a recruiter.

If you still want to do something in support of the military you can volunteer for Navy Sea Cadets or Civil Air Patrol. You won't get paid, but they do a lot in support of military operations.

First.. proud of you for wanting to join.
Second, the army or marines will work you so hard that ADHD will be a thing of the past during boot camp.
Go for it and you'll soon be off the meds.
