Bupropion - has anyone had success on this for ADHD?
After failed trials on
methylphenidate
(worked wonders for three months, now my tolerance is insanely high), Vyvanse and Atomoxetine, my doctor is now seeing how I fare on bupropion/Wellbutrin.

Has anyone tried Provasil or citicoline as a supplement to ADD med, or alone? Reading how Provasil helps brain function. Citicoline too.
Saw mr Dr. last week and switched to
methylphenidate
IR. Told her I think extended release might have been the cause for the muscle pain. I'm on my 2nd. day. Started with 10mg twice a day yesterday. Today I did 20mg. Think I'll skip second dose today to see what effects I might get.

Refusing medication
My 8 year old daughter started taking medication just before she turned 7 for ADHD combined type and after she got on a
methylphenidate
capsule we could mix into applesauce or yogurt, she mostly took it without problem for most of last school year.

do extended release stimulants cause more muscle issues than immediate release?
Tried
methylphenidate
ER, Adderall ER and Vyvanse. All gave me severe muscle pain in neck and shoulders. Wondering if its because of the extended release element.

ADHD medication query (UK)
Should I just continue with the
methylphenidate
and put up with the regime?! Also, he’s on non branded
methylphenidate
- anyone think the branded version is significantly different? Any advice greatly appreciated x

What do I do with my new provider taking the medication that saved my life? plus him treating me as if I were worthless..
The
methylphenidate
helped a good 40%. Enough to get me out of it and start working on things. But without it, I am scared. And he made me feel worthless, subhuman, hopeless for my medications and my diagnosis. It was an hour of this.

I need a doctor who will listen to me!
(I've taken gabapentin,
methylphenidate
, and clonazepam without any issues.) My doctor is condemning me to a life of suffering because of his own fears. I need a doctor, not a parent.

Adult ADHD Treatment Challenges
We haven't even tried
Methylphenidate
yet. Suggestions on what I should do? Should I try finding a new doctor? I find that very hard to select a good doctor. She went up to the 50 mg on Adderal very reluctantly and I still don't think it helps me.

Need therapy suggestions for anger and violent behavior
I don't know whether or not the
methylphenidate
has had anything to do with it. She has not taken it in the 5 weeks she's been off school and the behavior continues. Thanks in advance!

10yr old adhd, tics, aggression, bullying sibling
We have had to take him off
methylphenidate
because it caused his tics to become much worse. He has had some transient tics since being 6 but has consistently struggled with verbal tics since October (he started medication in January).

Undiagnosed chest and head pain and hypertension.
I was rushed to hospital and told it was possibly an arrhythmia caused by medication I’d just been put on (
methylphenidate
and Mirtazapine). I was told to come off medication until my heart had been checked by cardiology. Due to lockdown I’m still waiting for this to happen.

Anyone use Methylphenidate for fatigue?
Dr. gave me a script for Ritalin (
methylphenidate
) to try and see if that helps. I basically don't get off the couch - between the pain of my C5-6 met and the fatigue. Thoughts?
