Hello,

I recently started my ADHD journey. I was 2 weeks on concerta 18mg and we upped the dose to 36mg. Honestly I'm not feeling anything, but when i tried 2x18 it was harder hit so I'm not sure if this is medication for me or I should try higher dosage. I'm new to adhd journey so like honestly I don't know a lot. Could it be due to sleep? I have sleep problems and barely get 7 hours of sleep each night, could that affect medication?

Hello everyone,

I started my Concerta (36mg) journey a month ago and honestly it has been a very good ride. I noticed that I get used to the medication very fast. My GB decided to add Wellbutrin as a "booster" and said it works very well with stimulant medication but it takes a few weeks to start working.

Does anyone have experience in taking the medication?

Hello everyone,

A little background about me. Im 23M 185cm, 120kg. A while ago I was diagnosed with ADHD Combined type. I have been taking blood pressure medication to lower pressure and pulse. My routine is that I take the meds 2-3 hours before Concerta 18mg, not sure if thats good. What bothers me is that I dont feel any effects from Concerta. It's been 8 days. The first day was honestly okay but others it was like me taking a candy lol.

I eat and after 30 minutes take Concerta around 9:30am. Ofc I have protein rich breakfast.

I have been wondering am I doing something bad, should I take the concerta first then BP meds?

Also any new suggestions are welcomed :)
