its been ok but it wears off by the time he comes home...he gets upset and cries a lot

sounds crazy for someone with anxiety to take ritalin but i have some addlike symptoms. i take it 2xday take a xanax with it to keep me from getting anxious from it it seems to work for me. it is the only thing that helps me with my daily depression keeps me alert motivated enough that i am somewhat functional otherwise id be in bed all day.

Works to a degree, but it wears off as the day goes on and I become sleepy and unable to function. I worry about the dangers of using a stimulant.

It worked. It caused me to have a very small appetite. I also was jittery , had increased anxiety, and had diarrhea and upset stomach. It also caused insomnia.

love it for the control I have over my days. i only take 5 mg pills because not everyday is the same in my life.

I lost a lot of weight...but I stayed awake and my memory was better...but the new doc pulled my off saying it was short lived and not good for the long haul

my son has been on a lot of diffrent meds before i found one that work for him

I started taking this first and it worked but I had to go to the nurse in school for a second dose because it only lasts four hours. Then Concerta came out and it's bascially the same thing just lasts longer.

this med is working better than the other ones have. although seems like it takes a LONG time to get in his system.

Ok, but the dro off sucks.
