Adderall Experiences - Working? | ADHD Information

Share
I wish someone would comment on this one....BUMP....I am starting 5mgs his weekend for DS. Gulp.SOunds like he is adjusting, but it may need to be adjusted.

Hello -

 

My son, 4 years old starting with Adderall XR / 5mg about 3 weeks ago and here is our story... is it working or not???  Confused :(

 

Day 1 - generally good

Day 2-5 - no sign of improvement at home / school yes

Day 6-11 - GREAT - day and night

Day 12 - not so good / but not bad

Day 13 - OK

Day 14 - doesn't seem to be working / 1 hour tantrum at bed

We have been giving him Melitonine as well... except the night on Day 13 ... could it be because he didn't get a deep sleep? 

I don't know if this is what should be expected with Meds --  it seems to work and then doesn't work.  Help?  Experiences? 

What is PS??? I have been reading alot about that... open to trying anything for the sake of the family which is falling apart.

Thanks!
