A member asked:
Am i being unreasonable to think my language and memory problems are due to adhd medication and can go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Confusing question: If your memory/language issues are not present off treatment but appear while the meds are in your system, it is reasonable to assume there is a cause and effect relationship. However, many (40%) of adhd patients have coexisting problems of memory or other nervous system functions.
