[quote=Anonymous]My 10.5 year old DS takes Concerta and I was advised by the pediatrician not to take a break on the weekend. Apparently, Concerta has a withdrawal effect and you can't just stop taking it. Plus, I try to be consistent with DS and do not want to send mixed messages to him by taking during the week and taking a break on the weekend. DS dreads taking pills so I know I would get a lot of complaints on Monday if he had the weekend off. Also, DS does a lot of social and sports activities on the weekend, and maintaining the balance that Concerta gives him helps when he is in social settings. [/quote]
