A member asked:

Adhd medication concerta and smoking weed, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stop smoking weed: No doctor can tell the difference between the lack of attention and concentration that can be caused by marijuana and adhd. You are playing both sides against the middle. If you have problems stopping, get help to do so.
