My experience is ritalin (concerta) caused no effect on blood pressure but Aderall and dexedrine caused big effect.
Can you treat the BP effects?If anything, my appetite is greater on Aderall / dexedrine, especially for sweets. (Half a tub of Ben & Jerry whilst working on my PC at 11.00pm when I thought I was having a mouthful.)
With Concerta I would sometime forget to eat
but find that staying focused requires food + meds.Do you exercise? My best days are those that
begin with early breakfast, then gym, then breakfast #2, then work. Breakfast #2 is the most satisfying meal ever.Re: depression - there are many references to Wellbutrin as a unique antidepressant that helps
some people with ADHD. Is that a possibility?Good luck.
