Elvanse & Concerta XL : Worth persisting?

I was diagnosed some years ago with mild ADD. I was initially prescribed Elvanse, it was like a miracle, amazing clarity of thought! However, 2 days in it made me feel sick. I switched to Concerta XL, same problem. Sweating, dizziness, nausea. I gave up after about 3 days and never returned to the meds

Xaggitin XL no effect

I’ve been recently diagnosed with ADHD combined type (aged 41) I’ve spent a lifetime assuming I have depression, before something prompted me to find out more about ADHD and then everything made sense! I’ve always struggled with motivation and work- it’s as if there’s a force field around the things

What is CHAD score?

2 months ago, I fainted 3 times in one day - 2 at home and the third time in the hospital lobby after being discharged from the ER. In the ER, they detected AFib and gave me cardizem intravenously. I spent the night in the hospital with a Holter monitor and no more episodes occurred. I was sent home

Xaggitin XL and alcohol

My son (age 20) was diagnosed with ADHD a month ago and was prescribed Xaggitin XL on an 18mg dose. He hasn’t been experiencing any side affects but has been violently sick after drinking alcohol on 3 occasions now. Not a usual thing for him. I’m aware alcohol is to be avoided per the leaflet however

Changing from Atenolol to Adizem XL

Recently my bp has gone up and I have been put on 120mg of Adizem XL and stopped the Atenolol. I've been on the Adizem for four days now and my heart rate used to be around 55-60 and has gone up to 71. My bp readings are 115/76 when lay down but during the day they are 144/84.
