Possible side effect from Concerta??? | ADHD Information
Well I wouldn't think I was dehydrated I have been drinking alot of water since I started to take the Concerta BUT
I had no itching last night and slept great
Thank you for responding

The past two nights I have had extream itching (no rash) just extream itching it wakes me up after about an hour or two and I get up and get a glass of milk and go back to bed and the itching is gone

this has started since taking the Concerta. The only other thing that I have noticed has been when I awake is my eyes are burning.
Has anyone else had this happen???I~forget~39031.8160648148No - I take concerta and did not remeber and itching side effects. I do recall reading that some folks have felt like something was crawling on their skin before. I have felt my scalp tingling and am not sure if that is a side effect or not, anyway it did not last long and hasn't happened in awhile. My eyes burn slightly all the time and I do have a raspy scratchy voice that might be a side effect of the med. It is best to mention it to your doc as they like to track those things.Is it posible you are dehydrated? If your fluid intake is less or the concerta is working as a diuretic and with heaters drying the indoor air this time of year, drying out is more posible. Just a thought.I have been taking concerta for a week now and my mind hasn't slowed down yet either. I am on 27 mgi have taken concerta for 10 days now. 54mg. and i have some itching, but
most significant it hasent had any possitive effect on me whatsoever. After 5
hours my mind start clustering up and i get super sidetracked. then i cant
focus at all, and everything seems impossible! its weird, and i have asked my
doctor for Addreall......... anybody with some insights on this?
