[quote=Anonymous]DD was on extended release Focalin for about a year to two years (10 mg). It seemed to help with emotional regulation. Then she recently stopped after starting/stopping, and feeling like it didn't help her to improve her attention and focus. Then DD tried Concerta. She said it improved her focus but also made her tired. So we stopped. Tried Adderall (today was the first day) at 10 mg. She said it caused a headache and took an advil in the afternoon. Should she keep going with the Adderall? DD has anxiety, ADHD, ASD. She does very well at school but has difficulty completing chores at home and hyperfocuses. (Has been taking 37.5 Zoloft throughout this period of time, and so that has been unchanged).[/quote]
