What can i do to try and quit usinf concerta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Quit Concerta: Concerta, like other forms of methylphenidate and the amphetamines used to treat adhd only work for the day you take the medication. Each day is a new day. Discontinuing Concerta can be done by not taking the next dose. Some find that they will experience fatigue for several days following discontinuing concerta, but this should be temporary.
