Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My child has adhd and is on the addrell XR and has been for about month and half with an increase about 2 weeks ago. He is still having a hard time with focus and keeps shuting down with one of his teachers. He says he feels sad, and under pressure all the time and is having headaches.
Hello, I would suggest for a review of diagnosis in such a case. The behavior symptoms in children are so overlapping. He might be suffering from depression as he reports sad mood and headache. Bupropion can help in such a case as it help in depression as well as ADHD.(prescription drug).. Please talk to your doctor about this. Thanks
