My son was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 6 and is now 10. I have got to the point where I really don't want to keep pumping my son with drugs every day (he is on slow release Concerta 27mg), how do other parents feel? have any of you tried homeopathic treatments and have they worked?

My son is thriving on 18mg of Concerta ER. I personally it will help prevent him from self-medicating with alcohol and street drugs as he ages. My opinion aligns with published research posted by CHADD and other reputable organizations.
