Common Questions and Answers about Can concerta kill you

concerta

Avatar n tn I see this is an old question but I'm first time here and just will say 18mg Concerta will be overpowered as you didn't take any with high amount xanax, it's no spedball but can make some problems with tachychardia so be carefull....now if you take like 2mg xanax and 72mg Concerta and feel focused, motivated without anxiety f.e.
1031310 tn?1259857386 In fact, it was helping in him school... you alluded to this when you said that taking him off of the concerta meant he started doing poorly in school, probably because he is suffering the symptoms of his ADD again without his medication. BUT! He goes to a NEW church and immediately after starts talking about bestiality and "evil voices"!!!
Avatar f tn Concerta is almost identical to Ritalin.
Avatar m tn Can hemorrhoids kill you? I have one and it's causing me to bleed a lot from my rectum. But it stops after a few minutes. But every time I take a dump it makes it bleed again!

Avatar f tn Hi Corrie - I have heard that low magnesium can contribute to eye twitching. Will look up some articles for you later today so you can evaluate if it's worth looking into. Sorry to hear that is on-going!
Avatar f tn Can u eat deli meats from the store In the deli if you pregnant just curious?
Avatar f tn Hi Bill! Wow - 54 mg? Did you start off on a lower dose? That sounds awfully high... I've been on methylphenidate for about three years. (I take the brand Ritalin, but I'm pretty sure Ritalin and Concerta are about the same thing.) I started off on 5 mg, three times a day (of the non extended release) and I got a lot of benefit from it.
Avatar f tn Do go back to your Doctor and speak to him about the Meds and the amount you are taking, he is the best one to help you and perhaps get you on to something else, I have heard of the symptoms you get and it is probably the Med. Dont suffer with this it can be unbearable , if you decide you are ready at any time to wean off them ,the food supplements are shown to work very well and adjusting diet also. Put it into your search engine and see what you can come up with. Hope you feel better soon.
Avatar f tn He goes to first grade and leaves the home saying mom im gonna bre good today i promise. The drs have him on concerta long acting. But by 1230 he is totally uncontollable destoying and phsyicaly hitting others saying he is going to kill them.when they do get him calm right off to the princpals office he goes,mom gets called come and get him. By this time this little one(he is smaller than some in his classroom) starts to feel angrier because of hi actions he is upset for what has happened.
Avatar n tn Yes, they just want you to heat it up first to kill any Bacteria that might be on it. For instance, I now get my subs toasted at subway.
5757880 tn?1395578022 I kind of wonder if his Concerta dose is high enough? The doc will typically start you out low and wait to see how things are going. Also wonder when you remarked about other disorders if you have ever checked out Sensory Processing disorder. Your remarks about the tactile things rang a bell for me. You might want to check it out here - http://www.sensory-processing-disorder.
5757880 tn?1395578022 If you go under anesthesia, the doctor needs to know. If you go to the ER and need pain meds? They need to know. Some medications can even kill you. Same for fast. But again, not everything that’s prescribed is correct because you don’t know how the liver responds. Tell the doctor, or find a lab that can find out if he’s a poor, normal or fast metabolizer. You can also test yourself. It’s genetic! And there won’t be anymore problems.
Avatar m tn Lack of sleep at night can seriously mess you up. Usually, you are not even aware of it. That would explain the way you feel, and why it is so hard to get going in the morning. I certainly would have thyroid levels checked out, along with iron levels, etc. Basically, a good blood analysis looking at all factors. You never really mentioned what the side effects were of the Concerta that was bothering you. You have gone from a mid range dose to the smallest dose.
Avatar f tn One of the old heath pages that no longer exists talked about how there are different forms of fatigue. That drug only works on one form of fatigue (which is the one that makes you need to sleep). Another form of fatigue is when you just haven't got the energy to do things. This is the type of fatigue you are talking about and that I know quite well. I can sleep for 12-14 hours and still not have the energy to do anything.
13415927 tn?1430701518 Yes there is a more simple solution. Did you tell your doctor about being bi-polar and having anxiety? I'm assuming you did and ots not a self-diagnosis Concerta or any other medications like Adderall to treat ADD/ADHD will only exacerbate your other disorders. I use to be on concerts for my ADHD but I also have generalized anxiety. An SSRI is the best choice for treating those two. On second note, ADD/ADHD medications can treat depression but not anxiety.
Avatar m tn Of course, if you have taken your generic version of adderall after the concerta for a couple of days. That should be what shows up. But, I would think that as long as you have the prescription for the adderall, you should be ok.
Avatar f tn t exhibit the easily noticed hyper-activity, and yet have many of the same challenges. Do you know and understand what ADD is and can do to someone? I highly suggest you check out this site on adult ADD that just was a PBS special. I think you will find the information helpful. The site is http://totallyadd.com/#/welcome/ I do want to stress that many adults are able to stop their medication because the need is no longer there. I don't know if your son is in school or not.
Avatar f tn I have child that was also on Concerta 36. There are two types of this medication. Concerta and Concerta CR which is controller release, I believe it was called. However, I found that concerta is not a very effective drug for dealing with ADHD. You might want to have the school give her the second dose at 1pm at school, this way it will avoid the medicine lapsing while she is at school.
969557 tn?1314370614 Witch is a side effect to concerta and can not be reversed .They can only give you medicine to try and control the seizures. I wish we had never put my son on these medicines.We found out in 2006 that my son was having seizures and he still is and medicines is not working even thou he takes 4 now and at one time he was on 6 medicines and still didn't work.
Avatar f tn s eyes seem to be dialated even in bright light. He is taking Concerta for ADHD and he seems more absent minded than usual. Can the Concerta be causing the side effect of the dialation to his eyes? I mean his eyes are almost completely black with a very thin line of blue around them. I checked his eyes this morning before he took his Concerta pill and his eyes were still dialated, but not as badly as after he takes the Concerta.
