[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 100068, member: 1514"] Dexedrine turned Cory into a little monster when we tried it on him when he was around 9 or 10. I cant remember why we tried switching but after that he went onto Adderal successfully. I think maybe they were slightly longer acting than plain ritalin but maybe Im not remembering correctly. I dont even remember if the extended forms were out back then. Im sure both Jamie and Cory went on them when they came out. Jamie stayed on ritalin but Cory was on the adderall until he went off it at 13. Its all trial and error. Even Jamie had a bit of let down at the end of the day with the ritalin and for a very short time when Cory was at his worse, Jamie took tenex at night to get over the rebound. We think stress played a part. He took it for about 6 months and then went off. It may be that Dylan has to adjust to a stimulant or that it isnt the right medication for him. I guess you simply have to give it the old college try again. [/QUOTE]
