Daytrana for over 9 hours  

 

Does anyone have any experience in using Daytrana for over 9 hours.

I know it is recommended for 9, our doctor says it's ok to go over 9 to cover home work time. I obviously have concerns based on everything I've read and want to insure that there is no increase of side effect potential by leaving it on longer.

Any experiences would by helpful, by the way it seems to be working very well for my son other than the loss of appetite.

Thanks in advance

Yes, we keep the daytrana patch on ds for up to 12 hours sometimes. It's
OK to do. My ds metabolizes meds fast so when we take the patch off, it
doesn't work anymore. We originally tried taking it off at 3:00 after school
(recommended time) and he wasn't able to do homework or afterschool
activities. That's when the dr. said to keep it on as long as you need it.
