[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 593434, member: 1514"] Malika, I have an idea what studies you are reading but the mainstream studies have tested the stimulant medications for many years and found them safe. Especially ritalin. There have been other studies done by groups who have an agenda of their own. You can find a study that will show that spit if ingested in small amounts over a long period of time will cause death. It is not true that stimulants work the same way in the brains of ADHD people and those of non ADHD people. I worked in a pharmacy for almost a year and I have studied neuropsychopharmocology for years. My boys went on ritalin back in 1989 and I have been researching it since then. I spent over a year in consultation with a neuropsychopharmocologist from the University of NC at Chapel Hill School of Medicine with Cory. Of course I have been researching much more than just ritilan. Many medications that are used for psychiatric issues have also been given to kids for other things for far longer than when they started trying them for the psychiatric issues. Take the mood stabilizers. Most of them were used for epilepsy in children for years. [/QUOTE]
