> Is your BP why you quit Adderall? My doc wants me to try it before trying Concerta again. I'm a little nervous.
Yes - I wasn't able to safely ramp up to a therapeutic dose. I did a mix of dexedrine and Concerta and a BP med for a while which worked OK. I am now on exclusively Focalin XR which has been sharper than Concerta, no BP effects and for me the best choice so far.
DO you have BP issues? My pdoc suggetsed that less than 2% of his patients have a strong BP effect from Adderall I bought a personal BP monitor from EBay which has helped me monitor BP
