: I have been taking 18mg of concerta in the morning. I have noticed improvement since I first started taking it (it hardly seemed to work at all at first, and I was tired all of the time). I am concerned about my social life though. I tend to be more introverted when I am on it and kind of dull to be around.

: I am thinking of trying dexdrine.

: I don't really know if concerta would be any better on appetite since it is essentially the same thing as Ritalin.

: Good luck. Let me know how it goes.

We've not had a problem with YS experiencing any major loss of appetite. He's been taking Concerta for a bit over 2 months now.
