Fighting adhd. all the pills i take make me tired and cause dried mouth. what can i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ADHD: There are many brands and preparations of stimulant medications, as well as nonstimulants, so if there are too many side effects you should discuss alternative options with a doctor familiar with adhd. Sometimes the same medicine in a different preparation or dosage can be better tolerated. Additionally you could explore non-medication options, such as a coach. Keep trying-embrace your strengths!
