14 Year Old on Vyvanse | ADHD Information

melatonin is an all-natural supplement (your body
actually makes it, some people don't make enough). It's
very safe to use.

My younger son takes melatonin along with clonidine for
sleeping. My older son takes clonidine and imimpramine
for sleeping (melatonin doesn't work for him).

You can get melatonin just about anywhere. I WILL say
that I find Source Naturals (only ever seen it online)
and Natrol (can be found at Target, Walmart) are the 2
brands that seem to work best for us. There are varying
dosages, and some brands offer chewable versions of the
pills.

HTH a bit

Thanks so much, that's a big help.  Will stop at Target tonight on my way home.

Although she could not take Adderall, didn't get along with her body chemistry, she is on Vyvanse and doing well on it.  Big drawback is that she can't sleep!  Anyone have any suggestions.  I would rather not put her on yet another "prescription" med such as a sleeping pill.  Someone mentioned Melatonin to me but I know nothing whatsoever about it.  Anyone out there that has used it and is it safe?  Thanks for any input.
