Concerta Filed in Concerta
My son has been taking 18 mg of Concerta for a month, he is 6 years old. Since his mood is much more stable, he is less emotional and seems to focus more. He is also less obsessive about things he was before. He seems more able to play alone and doesn't always look for a friend. He has a little less appetite but he sleeps well and doesn't have other side effects. Overall Concerta is helping him. ...

My daughter just started taking concera a week ago. This is her second week and she is feeling like a zombie. She is 16 years old. Can anyone talk to me and give advice This can be a normal side effect, while her body is adjusting to the medication, however, it should taper off in a few more weeks as her body gets used to it. If it is really causing her a problem, you may want to contact her doctor, for advice. There is always the chance that she is on the wrong dosage or wrong medication to ...

Concerta immune/tolerance build-up Filed in Concerta
My son, who is 8, started 18mg Concerta a couple of weeks ago for ADHD. The first couple of days it was wonderful. He was generally happier, his concentration was excellent. He did talk a mile a minute and had trouble falling asleep at night. Both my husband and I were amazed at how well it worked. But the effect has been steadily becoming less and less by the day. It's been 2 weeks now and he's very much like how he was (impulsive, no concentration, doesn't listen etc) even while on medication. ...
