[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our prescribing psychiatrist said to keep kid on Concerta during summer. The meds aren’t just for academics. [/quote] Concerts works differently than a stimulant, so that may play a role. We don’t medicate on weekends, holidays, or summer. My kid is at 2% BMI so we need him to eat, plus he can get along when there are fewer demands on him overall. My BFF never takes a med holiday because she feels like it makes the med less effective. We use a stimulant, so it’s easier to try just skipping a day to see. There are pluses and minuses to both ways. [/quote]
