my six year old daughter just started this medicine a week ago I have noticed she is extremly tired all the time. I was wondering if anyone knew if this would go away over time. I don't want her to be a zombie either?

I watched while other meds caused stomach pains, chest pains, and watched him wither down to 65 pounds. This medicine has caused no stomach pains, he can eat and does he eat ... Show Full Comment

My best thing to share is the harmony in my home now. He's less likely to argue, he gets along with his little brother and isn't on edge all the time!!!

My son with ADHD (now 8) had been on various stimulants for 10 months, and while these were effective against ADHD symptoms, he had no appetite, had not grown in that time, and lost some weight.

We still have some attention issues, so we may try 3mg to help him catch up with school expectations.

We need to find a happy medium. Over all he is HAPPY
