In reply to ADHD meds... What next?, posted by jealibeanz on January 4, 2007, at 7:41:40
I currently take 54mg concerta also. Before I started taking it, I could have fallen asleep at any given moment and slept all day.
When I first started taking concerta a couple years ago, I was told that it would work instantly, and that I wouldn't have to wait to get the full effect. However, I think the benefits really only kicked in a few weeks after. Maybe that's just me, but I would suggest that you give it at least two weeks to work before you try something else.
Incidently, my pdoc put me on Strattera first, too. Among other things, I also found it to be depressing, and of course, the unbearable nausea was no picnic. :P
