Hi.
Because of insurance, my son has to leave Metadate CD, which works VERY well for him. Wears off after about 8 to 9 hours. He had absolutely no issues or problems with the 30/70 split.He has tried Concerta, but it lasted too long where it interfered with sleep. Regular ritalin was horrible because the crash caused depression.
Something that splits up the doses would be fine. And something that lasts the same amount of time would be great.Is Metadate ER or Ritalin LA a good sub? It looks like the Metadate ER may have a different delivery system, even for the long-acting portion that MEtadate CD had. And I've heard Ritalin LA has quite a different pharmacokinetic sp? profile.
I definitely want something that doesn't last too long, and what I'm most worried about is crashing.
Thanks in advance,
Katie
