[quote=Anonymous]If ADHD meds work does this mean that your child will be on them continuously through adulthood? I have read that young children don't develop a tolerance to the drug as adults do but I would assume that the dosage increases overtime. Does anyone have a teen who started meds around age 7-8 and has stayed on them for 10 years? DD's current dosage is the lowest and is having a mild but noticable positive effect with no real side effects. I'm hesitent to up the dosage to get better effects and trade off getting side effects and my concern about how this play out long term. [/quote]
