Metadate for ADHD

This is written assuming you have read my general discussion of

There is nothing new about Metadate CD. It is  just a reformulation of Ritalin for sustained delivery. Most information that applies to , and also applies here.

Because Metadate releases over several hours it delivers a smoother dose throughout the day. It comes in 10 and 20 mg  tablets.

Sustained delivery can be important for kids with after-school activities and homework. Once-a-day medication for ADHD can help to eliminate the feelings of embarrassment that children may feel when taking medication during of the school day or  after-school activities.

It seems to be superior to Ritalin Sustained Release because Ritalin loses its effectiveness after 6 hours. 

Like Ritalin the most common side effects reported were headache,  loss of appetite,  abdominal pain and insomnia. Other side effects are reduced stature, ticks, "zombie" demeanor, stomach aches, moodiness and  .

There are some disadvantages to Metadate:

You can’t cut the pill (or chew it) because that will destroy the release mechanism.

You can’t control the dosing to account for mealtimes; patients are not likely to feel hungry until the entire dose wears off.

Metadate is similar to Adderall, and Concerta. Both may be preferred to Ritalin because of their longer, more even action.

There is a highly effective treatment alternative to Metadate.

For over 35 years I have worked with ADHD children and their families. Having been an  ADHD child myself, I have a personal interest in this area.

Current explanations of the disorder never fit my experience or the children I saw. It always seemed contradictory that children who could not attend to school work could play computer games for hours, though both activities use the same areas of the brain. This stimulated years of  research and rethinking  of ADHD theory and treatment.  From this I developed my new (patented) and highly effective, drug free, Computer Aided Emotional Restructuring (CAER) treatment  and wrote my books, ADHD: Drug-free and Doin' Fine and  ADHD: A Path to Success to explain it. Learn how ADHD is not a defect, deficit or a disorder, but a highly skilled short-term defense mechanism that backfires in the long-run. Read more than 40 Amazon.com “customer reviews” of my book and treatment.   The most typical response when people read the book is “That makes so much more sense than anything else I have read”, “You describe my child exactly”.

It will empower you  an optimistic lens that will forever change how you see your child and his problems.
