Not For Weight Loss: Adhd medication is no longer used for weight control. They taken off the market many years ago because the weight loss effect stopped. In addition they are medications that kneed close follow up with the doctor. When used for weight control there is danger of mission using since it would take a bigger dose to get the same effect.
