Helpless and hopeless
I barely managed to complete my courses on the highest dose of
methylphenidate
possible, if I lost that I knew I would fail out of college in a week (from past experience), so no choice.

Helping a teen with ADHD with Organization in the classroom/backpack!!
He is on
methylphenidate
and also Intuniv. He was on the verge of failing last year and we managed to do it. We managed to end the year with all A’s, B’s, and one C. Which is a real miracle.

Intuniv
My son is doing well on
methylphenidate
but his doctor wants to switch to intuniv to decrease some of his impulsive and hyperactive behavior. Can anyone share their experience with this medication?

So dismayed and frustrated!
We try
methylphenidate
and Vyvanse and both did not work, they only made him sick with side effects. He is failing all his core classes and I've done so much to try to turn it around and we still haven't. The projects they give them have a multi-layered approach and he uses a Chromebook.

Daytrana patch
I think the more steady increase and decrease in medicine over a longer period of time (9 hours) will be a lot better than ups and downs of other forms of
methylphenidate
. He really cannot handle the medicine going up and down in bloodstream multiple times throughout the day.

Daytrana patch
I really want my son to try it because he doesn’t handle the oral
methylphenidate
very well when the drug concentration goes up and down quickly in his blood/brain. He has a really bad rebound when it decreases and gets anxious when med is increasing.

How long it takes for methylphenidate to take effect?
My 8 years old daughter started taking
methylphenidate
of 2.5 mg once a day for the past week because of her lack of concentration during class. However, neither the teacher or I see any changes. Any suggestions?

New
I spoke with my peds and we started on
Methylphenidate
10 mg. There was no change in his behavior and so it was uped it to 20 mg at which point he started to get very emotional. His meds were changed to Adderall 10 mg and he again became very emotional.

Good news and bad
I met with my neurologist this morning, and he wrote me a prescription for
methylphenidate
, for fatigue. Modafinil and amantadine did nothing for me, but maybe this will. I plan to begin trialing it tomorrow - I'll let you know how it goes!

Frustrated, anxious and a I've become a pushover!!
He has been failing and
Methylphenidate
and Vyvanse both didn't work, cause very bad side effects. He's finally with a week into the new grading period getting some decent grades, but I've had to hold his hand. His attitude is that it will be okay. He has no sense of urgency!

Methylphenidate to treat add while on Lupron ?
Anyone have any issues with add meds like
methylphenidate
while on Lupron post radiation ?? This is only to treat add diagnosis and not any tiredness or lethargy from any treatment related to PC.
