[quote=Anonymous]My 11yo started Focalin a few weeks ago. He had tried it once before in early Elementary. It did slow his appetite the first few days, but that leveled out pretty quickly. Now he does eat a small lunch, but the rest of his food intake is the same as before. He was irritable the first few nights when t wore off too. When he took it when he was younger, the side effects were much more severe and we stopped it after about 6 Weeks. On the positive side, he is feeling much more focused in school and says it’s a big help. He’s primary inattentive, so most of it is inside his head zoning out type behavior. Before, he said he would zone out and miss chunks of information, which was also stressing him out. It’s been a positive change for him. [/quote]
