dd is on concerta 36mg, and was doing wonderfuly, now i'm wondering if it still has it's affect, she is always mouving even when sitting down, pulling on her shirt, wipping her face with her shirt, sitting up and down on her heals constanly, the teacher just told me today that she is starting to have problems focusing on her work, she has been getting up in class to go talk to her friend a few isle farther, she needs re-direction now, it's not as bad as off meds, but i'm wondering if it needs to be tweeked a little, i'm not sure if it's the whole concerta thing thats making her fidgity, she just seems uncomfortable all the time, mouving, grabbing herself, pulling her shirt, it's just so anoying!

whats your opinion?

How long has she been on the meds?  The dose may have to be adjusted.  Why is she grabbing herself and pulling on her shirt.  Maybe she feels the stimulant going through her body.  When my son tried Adderall over a year ago, he felt the stimulant go through his body and he told me sitting on my lap that he was going to fast and he couldn't slow down.  Now at age 5 1/2 he's on Strattera 25mg and Clonidine.  He's only been on the Strattera for a little over a week but already I can seen some affect.
