What Are The Side Effect Of Adderall In Child?
Thanks. I had asked my child s doctor to prescribe her a booster dose of her usual medication (Adderall) to help her concentrate in the evenings while she does her homework. Instead he prescribed guanfacine! She s been on guanfacine in the past (it was the first ADHD med we tried) and it didn t do much for her. Why do you believe he did that? Would more Adderall not be approved, or might he have been worried about her ability to get to sleep at night?
