Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 My 7 year old nephew is on 54mg of Concerta. His mother went from doctor to doctor until she got one to put him on it. She said he had ADHD due to him being " too hiper " for her to handle. In my own oppinion he was fine. I spent alot of time with him. Needless to say, he is no longer the same child. He does not eat but once a day. Breakfast. He does not drink liquids, exept for the milk in his cereal. He sit's and stares. I have told her his healt is going down hill fast. What should I do. I am at a loss. Thankyou for the chance to vent. Please respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 That sounds like way too much of a dose. My 14 year old is on 36 mgs of Concerta. When they get too much, they become zombie-like (staring into space, not eating). He needs to have that dose reduced as soon as possible! By the sounds of it, he probably shouldn't be on it at all!
