Daytrana is great but there are definetly some side affects. Loss of Appetite, insomnia and it doesn't do anything for anxiety. (so I've been told.)

My son is on this and it calms him down but makes him not eat at all and makes him like a zombie. He is 13 and weighs only 90 lbs.

LOVED it! Very easy to control. Can leave it on for entire dose, or remove it early on days when full dose is not needed. Stopped this med only because son had irritation due to the patch

Worked very well. Only used for a month because it was a free sample. My insurance wouldn't cover it and it is very expensive. Killed his appetite.
My son started Daytrana 10mg patch at age 6 and it helped tremendously.
