I agree 100 percent.

the side effects are not worth it and you end up deal with more than the add or adhd.

don't wish for any one to go threw what my son has and my family,since he took medicine for adhd .

the hospital stays all the medicines he is on and not being able to play like other children or learn,because after take addreall  first and then changed to concerta .started to have seizures that wont go away with medicines and now surgery on June 24th this year and waiting to see this this helps to try take him off at least some of his medicines.
