   ADDERAL taken off Canadian market (ADD - Attention Deficit Disorder board)

26th February 2005
It just seems a little cruel to completely ban the drug, because it has helped SO many people, and they will now have to go through withdrawals and get acclimated to another drug which probably won't even work very well. From what I've read on this thread, the deaths only occurred in patients who already had heart problems. Banning the drug from EVERYBODY seems a little over-the-top and ultra-reactionary. I agree with the FDA when they decided to add a warning on the lable for patients with a history of cardiovascular problems to avoid taking this medicine. That way everyone else can still continue taking it. I mean people have died from taking Viagra, but they didn't ban that! (Well, they may have banned it in Canada...I don't know. Did they?)
