I have trouble staying concentrated in school for math especially. Since they get boring.. Well I told the doctor that .. and he doesnt speak good english and I dont speak good french.. He fuckn took my symptons wrong and pescribed me

Piracétam Mylan....  

What medicine would be good to keep focused for college this coming year.. I dont want to drop out . Like I did in highschool. Only reason I got accepted to college is my test scores was high..  Iv always had trouble doing my homework because it takes more then a hour to do it..  I have a really short attention span..

Should I just take this medicine and hope for the best?? I havent started taking it yet.. But the details make me not want to ...

Please check with a physican in the states to go over what symptoms you are having and if medication will be beneficial to treat them.  You can see your family doctor who may refer you to a psychiatrist, which I'd recommend for any type of diagnosing of add/adhd or go to a clinic on your college campus.  good luck

I don't know what the Dr. prescribed you because it is in french. There isn't a medicine for autism or for dyslexia - as far as I know. I wouldn't take the meds until you have the title translated and figure out what it is for. Concerta is supposed to work well for ADD symptoms.
