First of all, I also have a boy with ADHD. How old is your son?? mine is 7. He also was on Ritilin but I took him off as I hated the side affects. Hence, he did great at school but also was irritable and too calm. I am trying an herbal alternative called Focus specifically for kids by a company called NativeRemedies. He has been on it for about 1 week and I have seen some changes... The product is all natural and I fully researched the website and where the product comes from and everything is okay. The bottom line is I am exhausted all the time as he is like a motor, non-stop all day. This is also my reason for joining this website because sometimes I feel so desperate and alone. keep in touch.

Hi again Sisterlynch,
I became side tracked and did not fully answer your question about Atterol. I believe the medication you refer to is "Aderral XR". Yes, I was prescribed this as well to my son and he took it for about 3 months and I switched to Ritilin. With Adderall my son was very irritable and fussy especially before bed and he had no appetite while on the medication. This was my experience, but yours may be different as the doctors say "all kids are different".
