Do Betablockers affect ADD? I recently started Toprol XL 50mg for blood pressure, and was curious whether it could help or hinder my ADD. Thanks.

View full discussion thread on HealthBoards.com: 19th August 2006 Do Betablockers affect ADD? I recently started Toprol XL 50mg for blood pressure, and was curious whether it could help or hinder my ADD. Thanks. 9th September 2006 I've been on Toprol XL for about 2 years and have ADHD. I can't take anything for the ADHD- certainly not stimulants, (Adderall was great for the few months I took it,) and Strattera didn't do anything but have side-effects.
I don't think I'm any different because of Toprol, at least regarding my ADHD. 28th February 2007 I don't know whether the Toprol did something for my ADD or not. It would be interesting to know whether beta-blockers could help ADD/ADHD given that they have a "calming" effect. |
