| Posted over 5 years ago I have personal experience. I was diagnosed with it as a kid (in 1993) and took Metadate for it. Does anyone know of any new medications? I didn't react well to it and they ended up putting me on Ridalin. I'm interested to hear about what is new out there. |

| Posted over 5 years ago my grandson ( age 6 ) was just started on Concerta. It seems to have made a big difference. I'm not sure I like the "new" him. He is much more subdued ( use to talk up a storm ) . I will have to wait and see. His homework and grades have greatly improved tho. |
