[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 590134, member: 11791"] Yes an overlapping dose of Concerta would affect both appetite and sleep. She's taking her current dose at what, 7? 6:30... so she's getting about the normal 8 hours of effective dose. Perhaps she needs a different booster... like strattera. Yes, you can be on both. Our psychiatrist says that strattera alone usually isn't effective, but it can be paired with methylphenidate and/or other stims (it's a non-stimulant). Strattera is a build-up medication, but once it kicks in, it provides a 24/7 baseline. And it doesn't seem to affect appetite. [/QUOTE]
