Some kids have a problem with peaks and valleys with the regular. It takes 30 minutes to work, works for a couple of hours and then stops working and they need the next dose, same cycle again. The pharmacy should not have given you the regular if the Dr. wrote for the extended release. |
first the dr didn't write the extended release, they messed up and I dind't catch it till I was home.
Second, he only takes it once...says once in the morning.
He only needs it realy between the hours of 830-130, so im thinking one may be enough.
I guess I 'll just have to have the teacher let me know how it affects him.
