   Question about possible placebo w/ concerta? (ADD - Attention Deficit Disorder board)

10th July 2007
I don't believe that doctors are allowed to prescribe placebos but I'm not sure.

I take Conerta 54mg and I don't feel much different. The only difference that I feel is that I am less tired throughout the day. Everyone else noticed the difference straight away, even those who didn't know I was taking any medication.

Some medications don't affect people at all where other medications will, you could just need a higher dose or a change in meds completely.

you but may actually hurt you. So I hear.

Concerta is more commonly used for adults then Ritalin. This is because Concerta is slow-release and lasts longer as adults tend to have longer days. Both Concerta and Ritalin are Methylphenidate so the risk of Concerta "hurting" someone is no more than Ritalin.
