[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those with experience, how does medication help? And how long does it take for it to take effect?[/quote] Almost immediately for my DD. She took a low dose 5 mg/day Focalin for a week and didn't notice a difference, then increased dosage to 10mg/day and no difference, then went to 15mg and she noticed a solid difference in her ability to focus in the classroom and retain the information. It is Focalin XR so she takes the one dose before school and it lasts for from about 8am to 3pm.[/quote]
