DependsHowLongOnIt: It is not known whether Quillivant XR will harm an unborn New Born.Answer to your question depends on how long you have been takin Methylphenidate(QUILLIVANT)XR.As stopping suddenly can cause withdrawl symptoms that can make you sick.The drug may need to be tapered slowly in that case.I will call the prescribing Doctor,ask if you should stop or need to slowly taper and then stop.Call MD as soon as
