Medication question....... | Autism PDD

Share

We just started Michael on Focalin XR today as recommended by his pediatrician per our consultation and conference w/ his teachers.  He started the 5 mg dosage.  How long does it take to see results from these types of things?  I haven't noticed a single thing different in him today.  Will it take a few days, weeks, etc.?

Thank you!

You should see the medication take effect withing an hour...perhaps the dose is too low.  My adhd son has taken stimulants before and they work quickly 1/2 hour to one hour.
