Varies from person to person. And varies according to the dose. A certain does can cause sleep issues, a slighter lower dose not.

Also varies according to the life you're living. Exercising for me makes sleeping easier on certain meds that otherwise interfere with my sleep. Going outside during the day (especially cold winter days when I'm tempted to hide inside) can make a difference.

Really, good sleep hygiene becomes more and more important (ADHD meds or not) the older we get. I got friends in their 50s who take no ADHD meds and have all kinds of sleep issues.
