I'd like to know what other's experiences with Omega -3 has been in combo with meds like Concerta. We have recently begun working with a therapist who suggested it as a possibility for my 8 year old son and have done some preliminary on-line searching to see what the research is. Is it important to make sure the DHA is higher than the ERA? What results have people found? Any side effects? Thanks for any info!

The ADHD daily dosage is 1000 mg or 1 g. There are no side effects. It improves mood and decreases aggression. It takes up to four months to see improvement. If you read the Omega-3 thread on the alternatives board you are sure to find links to the relevant clinical trials.
