Straterra vs Adderall XR
Has anyone taken adderall xr and switched to straterra? I am terrified. I was taking Adderall XR 30mg twice a day and my doctor switched me to STRATTERA 60mg a day. The XR's were working great for me and im afraid it isnt going to work the same.

New Medication after Vyvanse?
Hello, I’m very new to this site. My son, now 23 was diagnosed with ADHD in the third grade. He successfully took Adderall XR for about 8 years (the last two of those years were a mess). He then was changed to Vyvanse 70 mg for the last 6 years. Although, there have always been struggles, the medication

Has anyone had problems with their child’s medicine not showing up in urine test?
Long post but I’m confused and am just trying to see if this has happened to anyone else too! My 8 year old has been taking Focalin XR since Kindergarten and until this last month we have never had a problem with it showing up on his urine tests. He is now on a 20mg dose and I give it to him every day

Medication changes
Hi I am new to this community. I have a 7yo boy who was diagnosed in end of Kindergarten (he is now in 2nd grade). He recently had a big change in his mood and attitude. He was doing well with medication alone and some behavioral modification. I am only seeing a neurologist and I am currently seeking

Hello, my son is 10 years old and we started meds at the end of last year. He has been on adderall xr and concerta Xr I believe 18mg and then bumped up the dose to 27mg. We haven’t really seen much improvement in school. Especially in reading/writing. The teachers are always letting me know that he is

Getting a negative result on Amphetamine urine despite being on generic Adderall daily.
I've been treated for ADD for at least the past 10 years and prescribed Adderall ( currently taking the generic version by Prasco). I take 25 mg of Adderall XR and 10mg of immediate release mid day. I take my meds religiously. My new doctor gave me two urine test to screen for Amphetamines and BOTH came

Picky 8YO on Adderall XR needs to gain weight
Any good ideas for getting our picky eater to eat enough calories to start gaining weight? (Without meds he’s a dynamo, less so on meds, but he’s always moving, so he burns plenty of calories.). Wondering about kid-friendly shakes (think Ensure) that taste good. Don’t want to buy a bunch of something

Does adderall work ?
One difference between the drugs is how fast they work and how long they last. Adderall may work slightly faster, but Concerta lasts longer: Adderall typically works within 30 minutes and lasts for 5 to 7 hours. Adderall XR usually works within 30 minutes and lasts about 8 to 10 hours http://verifieddrugstore.com

New to ADD meds but need to switch
I was diagnosed in April with ADD. I have always struggled with school but had been able to compensate until reaching the doctoral level. After almost quitting my program I decided to get evaluated. I started taking the generic Concerta in April and It has really made a difference and enabled me to make

Hello! Day 1
Hello out there - our 7-year old son was diagnosed with ADD back in August and we started meds last Friday, Adderall XR - 10 mg. I joined today because the last 2 nights he's had a hard time falling asleep. I found a few posts about taking a supplement and landed on the Brain MD Restful Sleep supplement

Genesight
I forgot to mention that my son took the genetic testing and all the adhd meds were in the red zone. Which meant he had a significant gene drug interaction with all the adhd meds. My doctor did not explain what that meant. When I went home I read the report and understood that none of those meds will
