My kid on Ritalin is having trouble sleeping
my son’s psychiatrist added a second dose of
Ritalin
to be given at noon when he’s at school and now he’s having a harder time falling asleep. I’m wondering if any of the parents here have tried giving their children natural remedies for sleep? I’ve tried melatonin gummies but it doesn’t work.

Pharmacy out of stock?
I just got prescribed
Ritalin
💊—10mg tablets for a month. The prescription was sent to CVS Pharmacy. I waited two days with no phone call, so I called in and they said they were out of stock.

Anyone been blocked from other forums?
Eg sertraline,
Ritalin
. I hate to imagine what effect this will have on these poor kids later in life.

reducing meds
My dd was diagnosed at 8 and on
Ritalin
. Now 14 and we have reduced dose by 5mg a day. She seems to be getting ocd type symptoms whilst on the meds. She doesn’t seem to need them for homework and I can see some inattentive symptoms but really just quirky.

Qelbree
I have tried
Ritalin
, Adderall and Strattera.
Ritalin
gave me bad mood swings, Adderall made my heart race and increase irritation and Stattera made me super sleepy. I am very sensitive to medication and so my doctor opted to try me on this new non-stimulant.

Ritalin Long Acting vs Immediate Release
Hi All, I tried switching to LA
Ritalin
(20mg). I noticed that LA makes me a bit more slow and sluggish Although does last longer. It's like random waves and unpredictable. Although it lasts longer. Short acting makes me more energetic and lively. Like short burst of energy.

First med
Doctor sent wrong med on script (
Ritalin
LA) into pharmacy and my preferred pharmacy doesn't have it anyway. I know things are going to continue to go left sometimes. But damn, I'm just tired. Trying not to expect the worst.

side effects of Adderall
I initially had my 5 yr old son on low dose 2.5mg
Ritalin
for 1 week and a half but it didn’t last as long during the school day. The dr switched him to Adderall this past week and my son’s behavior got worse. His teachers said he was angrier for longer periods of time and more irritable.

Has anyone tried saffron?
There was a very short article in Pyschology Today that said children and adolescents who took 30 mg of a saffron extract had the same positive effects as the group that stayed on
Ritalin
. It said it greatly helped with executive function, anxiety and depression. Has anyone tried this?

ADHD Medication update
I caught up with my Psychiatrist and he said that I should try methylphenidate and he specifically recommended
Ritalin
(10mg) - I am only taking 5mg for a start but may increase after.

Flying from U.S.A. to Ireland with medication?
I currently take generic Concerta (methylphenidate) and generic
Ritalin
immediate release (also methylphenidate). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
