Common Questions and Answers about Concerta to get high

concerta

Avatar n tn t get high off it anymore, but desperately need to clean the house - my friend gave me an 18mg concerta. I've had them before and they let me get all the house work done. My question, is it okay to take with such a large amount of xanax? (This is out of harm reduction) Drugs.com says no interaction, but I just want to make sure. People have told me the xanax will kill the stimulant high, some others have said the stimulant will put you in withdrawal...
Avatar f tn It seems a bit odd that these symptoms would only appear when switched to a lower dose than he was used to. How much concerta does he take a day?
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.

Avatar f tn Serious, life-threatening side effects can occur if you use Concerta before the MAO inhibitor has cleared from your body.
Avatar n tn We usually do take a break in the summer, but we always have to start back on it at least 2 weeks before school starts to get through that transition time. The transition period is nowhere near as dramatic as that first one, but there is still an adjustment. Sometimes in the afternoons when he gets home from school, he is allowed a glass of Coke to help with "rebound.
Avatar n tn Everyone i've spoken to about my heart rate being high in the morning (usually somewhere in the 100's sometimes) and palpitations and rapid rate when sitting sometimes, i've been told to see doctor and to ask for beta blockers or something. I take a stimulant for ADHD (Concerta 72 mg) and i don't want to change because the only one that's not a stimulant (Straterra) made me nauseaous and tired.

But of course the pill doesn't come that way. You might ask what she thinks about starting him out at 10mgs? Hope this helps. Let me know how the prescription card works from the Indiana site.
Avatar f tn If he is getting mad at his sister under Cocerta and was not before Concerta, maybe the dosage is too high. Talk to his doctor about decreasing it or changing to another medicine such as Metadate CD.
Avatar f tn I have a 5 year old daughter who has recently been "kicked out" of pre-school for aggression. My husband & I have taken her to therapy and we are now trying medication (Concerta 36mg). Nothing seems to be working and the aggression is worsening. I love my baby girl and it is breaking my heart to see her so unhappy all the time. We are doing everything that is recommended in therapy (behavior charts, ect) and still no progress.
Avatar f tn m thinking the current twitch is likely unrelated to Concerta and may be MS related. If so, it is a new symptom for me and like most MS symptoms, I need relief. Has anyone had any success getting rid of the twitches? I am not under any more stress than usual and not using my computer more than normal either and my last eye exam went well in Sept so I don't know if there is anything that can be done or not. Whether related or not to Concerta, I have had the twitch for 3 weeks now. Thanks!
Avatar m tn I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult a few years ago, and started taking concerta to help me focus in college. I stopped taking it for a while, and about a month ago, went back on the concerta. I take 36mg of extended release in the mornings when I have class or homework to do, and it does help me focus. However, since going back on it, I've noticed that I sometimes can't grasp words. Like I know what I'm talking about/trying to say, but I can't place a word with it.
Avatar f tn Years ago my husband came to me asking me to try a homeopathy root for ADHD that someone told him about. Good thing I did my research. It was used by native hawaiians to get high. It was compared to cocaine and not only was it addictive but it also causes kidney damage. Do your research before trying anything.
Avatar n tn and is she on 36mg, 54mg or both? Its hard to say whether it is because the dose is too high or not. Does your daughter have a headache when the meds wear off? When the dose is too high it can often leave you with a headache, which makes you irritable and cranky. I can personally say it has happened to me. When my dose was too high it made my head hurt and therefore making me cranky as all hell.
Avatar m tn no I don't prefer talking to therapist about my issues just for the fact that my brother suffered severe bipolar and my mom made it so that she and my father could be at the meetings, and me. my mom lied to him saying it was family therapy to him to get him to go and "personally she was very rude to him" I can't stand drama it puts me in a ill mood quick.
Avatar n tn he now takes 60mg adderall xr, and the problem is greater. for the meals that i can get him to eat, i make sure they are high in calories and sufficient in protein. but he still is skinny as ever. hint--feed hime first then give the medication...good luck...
Avatar m tn Im a 16 yearold male that plays a ton of sports and works out a lot but I'm never hungry! Its really weird all my buddies eat a ton of food after our games and in general there always hungry! I'm 6 feet tall and weigh 160 pounds. I am starting to feel weak because I don't eat. Is it normal for me to feel like this? I'm currently on 105mg of concerta. Could the concerta be doing it to me?
Avatar m tn Is there anyway to reduce this while taking adderall, and what could it be caused by? I was then switched to 18mg Concerta ER and I still get the same side-effects but they are about 85% less severe and last alot shorter 1-2 days max, but doesnt even work for me. Maybe amphetamines are too "strong" for me? I diagnosed with ADD and was prescribed Adderall 20mg XR when I was about 22 years old, and I didn't have a problem at all except slightly dry mouth.
Avatar f tn I used to get that headache also when i didnt eat before med time. Certainly not plesant so try eat before hand, or if your really short of time just do what ive done, take it with milk! The milk helps to line your stomach, preventing any irritaions. Does the trick quite nicely. But, if your still getting the headaches AFTER you've eaten and medicated then assess the dose. headaches are usually an indication of a too high of a dose. So just see how you go!
Avatar m tn I am also going to have a night time tumescence test done to rule out psychological causes. I am pretty sure it is not a psych problem as I do not get morning erections and cannot get erections when masturbating. Has anyone else experienced similar problems associated with Ritalin/concerta after stopping? Here are some further symptoms I have noticed: Whilst taking the meds, I noticed that the veins in my arms, hands, stomach and along the shaft of my penis expanded in size.
Avatar f tn I take Abilfy, Topomax, Wellbutrin and Concerta. I go to the gym 3x week and try to watch what I eat. I am always tired!!!! Any suggesstions?
Avatar n tn I always wonder if the meds are making it worse at first and then it starts to get better. Your doctor must have attributed your symptoms to anxiety or depression I am assuming.
Avatar n tn kind of personal but its important 3 days ago i took concerta 54mg, it was a dirty pill that was exposed for week and a half but i needed it i took it on 8:16 in the morning, so it will last untill 20:16 or 20:46 depends on when the 12 hours begin around 18:00 i felt a sexual urge, i had an eraction but i didnt do anything with it 5 - 6 minuets after i tried to masterbate, i failed to get aroused just by sight and had to somewhat force ejacuation (i got arousd only after 40 seconds of.. well...
Avatar f tn t forget to take the next dose - which happens all the time on the regular medicine, because by the time I need the next dose I am just starting to get sluggish and sleepy (and forgetful!) again.
11352669 tn?1417486501 30 PM to 8-9 PM, and I take the concerta around 8:15AM before school) -very dilated pupils -sensivity to light -dizziness (not unpleasant, and without headaches or difficulty thinking, alcohol like vertigo effect, and very slight) -distortions (things get bigger or smaller, or go right, then left, but again very slightly, and only around what I'm looking at, never directly at what I'm looking) -LSD or whatever type effects, but SUPER SLIGHT and only visual (colors change just a bit
Avatar n tn I could focus ALL DAY on various things. Life was interesting. There was so much to say, so much to think about. I literally loved being alive. But in reality I was in a drug induced stupor. 48 hours would float by and I would not have much recollection unless I did something other than sit online. And most times that's all I did. I did not like being in public on it or talking on the phone. I didn't want anyone to know I was messed up.
5757880 tn?1395578022 After spending $186.00 for the generic form of concerta I'm about ready to cry... no, I have already cried. My insurance changed plans to a high deductible and now I must meet a $2500.00 in regards to my son's medication. I have already checked with medicad/medicare, the martketplace and there is nothing my insurance company nor employeer can do. Can anyone give me any information in how I can lower my cost or perhaps is there a cheaper alternative? Thank You!
Avatar n tn each person reacts to concerta differently. that being said, it is a stimulant, and when taking stimulants it may increase heart rate, which in turn will decrease your immune system, thus making you susceptible to any form of sickness and diseases. only explanation you can get for the coincidence. other then that concerta does not have a direct cause to contracting anything.
