A member asked:
Should an 9 year old child be taken off adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) during summer vacation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ADD medication: I recommend stopping add medications(except straterra)on weekends and vacations unless there is an activity that requires it. This allows the return of a normal appetite to offset the dinished appetite so commonly caused by these medications on school days. This allows for a more balanced and adequate diet over the long term.
