My son has been on Daytrana patch since February. He currently is at 20 mg. I feel like it is not working at all. He is more irritable, aggressive and impulsive. He cannot swallow pills due to sensory issues. We previously tried Focalin XR (he kept chewing the beads) and Vyvanse (increased tics). I was wondering about Methylin as it comes in a liquid or chewable or Dextroamphetamine which also comes in a liquid. Anyone have any experience with these???? Thanks!

Deandre was diagnosed with autism and adhd in July, but nothing was explained. The only thing we received from them was a source list of therapies that are two hours away from us. I’m new to this all and kind of lost. We have just been living life as we always have.

Caffeine, allergy medicine just make him more wired. I'm terrified it could make matters worse. He claims he has no control of his outburst or constant rebuttal. I'm mentally exhausted.

My 10-year-old son was diagnosed with ASD last year by a psychologist specializes in autism. Before that, his primary doctor diagnosed him with ADHD. He also struggles with significant anxiety, which impacts his ability to complete schoolwork.

His counselor believes that anxiety is a key challenge for him and worries that a stimulant might worsen it. We did try a non-stimulant (Strattera), but he didn’t tolerate it well—it made him feel nauseous and lightheaded.

When I discussed this with his… read more
