[quote=Anonymous]My nephew has been on Concerta and Adderal for a long time and is over 6'2". His parents are not tall, well mom might be, both parents are around 5'6". And what do you mean you tried Ritalin but no longer have a choice? You mean you tried it for a very short time? It has been my experience with my DD, that Concerta improved her appetite in the evenings, and with that came a bit of a weight gain and that should help with height. She started at 15 so it didn't matter height wise, but I do think if she started earlier it would have helped her eat more, leading to height gain. It has been my observation, that hyper kids eat more and grow more if on ADHD meds. But, just my observation.[/quote]
