Dr. Patricia Harkins answered

Specializes in Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics

Medications: The cheapest meds are the generics of Ritalin (methylphenidate) and Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) (mixed amphetamine salts). They are short acting and have to be redosed every 4 or 6 hours to remain effective through the day.
