Well I went ahead and went to 100mg...60 in am and 40 at 3-4 and it made a big difference. I finally felt improvement in attention and appetite decrease...yea!!!

My doc thought I might need to so he gave me a sample pack of 14 60mg. The research said that many folks need this amt to get anything out of it. The first day I felt wiped out for 2 hours after taking the first dose but today was really ok at the second day. I slept ok last night but for now I am taking OTC Unisom to help.

I'd say try the 100mg before giving up...it's within the recommended amount. I am skeptakle [sp?]when folks say they notice something on 25mg or the other lower doses...none of the research says that did anything to the test group except power of suggestion. All of it says that it needs month OR TWO for maximum benefits and the lower doses during the fist period is just getting you body used to it.

And how many of us are know for our patience??? Certainly not me!!!

I see my doc next monday and I will tell him I will try this for 2 more months [since I see him every 2 months] and if I'm not any more impressed I will go back to ritalin...and do so disappointed...I really wanted this to work for me.
