ritalin side effects heart

Why Ritalin, a medication that has side effects? I would suggest you try ginko biloba, a natural supplement that has been widely studied and has no side effects. I was once on a study with this herb for two years. There is absolutely no doubt as to its efficacy.

Tell me please, what effects does 4-5 yrs of amphetamine(addreall) use have on the heart of a 9-10 yr old child? What part of the heart does this effect? Have you seen aortic stenosis or any other valvular problems? Please help!!!

My sister and I started a blog on Adderall to learn more about the medication along with alternative and complementary ADHD treatment options. Any feedback from users of Adderall or Adderall XR would be greatly appreciated. Topics to be added this week on http://Adderall.org How is Adderall XR different from Adderall? [Adderall vs. Adderall XR] What is Adderall? How to Make Adderall: [Adderall Background Information] What are the best Adderall and ADHD books?

You may find that Florinef or Midodrine do more to alleviate your symptoms. That being said, I take Ritalin every four hours. As for the effects wearing off throughout the course of treatment, I've been told that taking a two week break every year can sort of "reset" your system. I've yet to do that myself, but may sometime in the near future. As for implantable devices, the usefulness of a pacemaker in Dysautonomia is an ongoing debate amount specialists.

The SENCO at my sons junior school told me that once, that these drugs won't work if the person doesn't have adhd/add. I know my son didn't have side effects with ritalin but does with concerta. Also a doctor told me once there are 7 kinds of adhd. from very hyper to very withdrawn.

I was on an MAOI that also worked but that had side effects I really felt uncomfortable with. And yes, Ritalin can be used for depression.

it has also been shown by experts that a good food supplement of anti oxidants VitC and Vit B Complex work as well as Ritalin with no side effects ..You dont say the age of the child , but masturbation is considered normal behavior amongst most children unless its excessive .

Yes it is well known ritalin has side effects of anger and aggression and in fact experts have found that food supplements , anti oxidants Vit C and Vit B complex have the same efficacy as ritalin.with none of the side effects .... Run it by your doctor , I suggest you go the supplement way to help your son ....

One of the side effects of Ritalin is paresthesia, probably because of circulation problems to the extremities. This made me think that Ritalin also reduced blood flow to other parts of the body, possible the brain. This idea alarmed me, and made me search PubMed frantically. Here are a few studies I found: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1992832 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.

The most common side effects associated with citalopram are nausea, dry mouth, vomiting, excessive sweating, headache, tremor, drowsiness, and inability to sleep.

Interesting! I took a look at the side effects and couldn't find anything that seemed to fit. To play it on the safe side, it is always a good idea to mention it to your doctor. The other question would be - did you engage in any type of physical activity during the day? It sounds more related to that. Also If you spent a long time resting on your arm (maybe while reading), this could happen.

i stopped it and now doctor prescribed stattera which we are supposed to start tommorow. after reading side effects of i am now scared of the same thing happening and possible suicidal thoughts. is there any alternative that anyone has tried that actually works without all this.....

Hello Between ages 8 and about 28 I took, daily, a prescribed dose of Ritalin (between 20 mg and 40/mg per day) to treat a learning deficit that has always clearly expressed itself. Ritalin was very effective and the noticeable side effects were minimal. However, around age 20 I began to notice erectile sustainability issues which became increasingly prevalent heading into my mid and late twenties.

Hi, I take Vyvanse and it's doing the trick for me. I haven't experienced any of the issues you described. I have a friend who takes Concerta and she's never mentioned any side-effects to me. There are many different medications, including ones that aren't stimulants. Perhaps your Ritalin dose isn't high enough because it doesn't seem to be doing much for you. You should discuss that with your doctor. Take care.

It is one of the side effects of Ritalin perhaps you should ask your Doctor for a new evaluation of the Med, if you ever decide to let him be on Natural Remedies, it has been shown in studies that food supplements have the same efficacy as Ritalin and a Muliple Vitamin-mineral with B Complex and Vit C also Fish oil, would be good, a lot of Parents are trying this now and their children and not getting the bad side effects that Ritalin and the other meds have.

Did he get regular follow up from his attending physician? How is his sleep now a days? Side effects of a drug is usually studied in a group of persons so all the side effects of a drug need not be present in all the individuals who take it. If a drug reaction or its side effect is seen, the person has to stop the drug and consult the attending physician or ER physician earliest.

I have been using Adderall for quite awhile for Narcolepsy. It works great. However, all of the sudden my blood pressure started to go up. I am not sure if the long term use of Adderall is the reason, but while investgating information, I found out that Canada does not allow the use of Adderall because of side effects. I just switched to Concerta today. I'll let you know of my results if you wish.

My doc gave me Ritalin for ADD and Effexor for depression but this last one gave me too many side effects and I stopped taking it. Now he switched me to Wellbutrin (150 mg once a day) and 30 mg Ritalin. I have felt sick but am not sure if it is the withdrawal effects from stopping Effexor or the mixture of Wellbutrin and Ritalin. I feel brain spasms, especially in the back of my head. Today I did not take the Ritalin and felt no spasms.

Your problem probably originates from combination of Ritalin, which has "tics" (muscular spasms) among its side effects. Caffeine is just another stimulant. What do you think about dropping caffeine totally?
