[QUOTE="Malika, post: 562406, member: 11227"] It is not just in Europe. This is from the information sheet produced by Novartis for Focalin in the US: Focalin XR should not be used in children under 6 years of age, since safety and efficacy in this age group have not been established. I do not know why it is being prescribed when the drug manufacturers themselves do not recommend it for this age group.
