In reply to Other ADHD treatments: Aricept? Concen/working mem, posted by zonked on March 10, 2016, at 23:33:25
Hi Z-
> I blurt things out and behave somewhat impulsively in addition to spacing out, losing focus/concentration, forgetting where things are, messes of paper, etc...
Are we related?

> Does anyone know about using Aricept (donepezil) for this? I know it's off label, but I could have sworn reading in one book about how a woman claimed it helped her increase her amount of working memory tremendously.I don't know but please keep me posted. I have terrible ADD and my memory is horrible.

> Trying to think outside of the box for my next appointment, although thinking increasingly that I want to go back on Focalin XR.My new T just told me that she does very well on Focalin XR. How do you like it? Advantages/disadvantages? I like Ritalin IR because I can dose it as needed. But I've considered that something "smoother" might even out my highs and lows during the day.
Thanks,
Jade :)
