I take Concerta 54 mg for Adult ADD. I know it is a stimulant. So unless you intend to be up all night do not take it before bed. Although it might be an idea if you work 3rd shift. (Keeps you awake) Even during the day it is meant to keep you awake. It does pretty good for me. It keeps my mind from wandering all the time. Even while I was making dinner, my mind would be off in never, never land. With the Concerta, I can concentrate better. Before the Concerta, it was a wasted effort to even try. I don't know what the side effects are supposed to be. I haven't looked that up. But I know it works for me. HOWEVER I must caution you to be extremly careful and take it only as your Dr tells you. If you aren't sure, or if you can't remember if you took it or not, you're better off safe than sorry. Just don't take anymore until the next day or unitl you can buy a pill box. :-) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
this is my first post on this site. I have a not-unheard-of but frown apon story. I am not going to write some long story. .... But to answer to question..... I was just prescribed concerta today. But unfortunatly, I used to be on Ritalin SR..... but I was on concerta before also before that... long ago..
My take on concerta is .... The following will make sense to you if you feel you are taking 1. HaVE you ever been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD or FASD or (FAS) ? if yes ... then you probably been prescribed it.. 2/ If you have a genetic predepostion towards Alcoholism it would be a good idea to go to a rehab even though you don't think you have problem.
3. Never take it if you are not prescribed it, cause it a extremely slow atcing pill........
EdIT by kkandlillyrock I take it.,too what happens is u lose ur appetite and become calm

No
if you take concerta and stop and have to take a drug test two days later, will concerta show up at all.
Yes, you can. Concerta - or 'methylphenidate' - does not interact with Advil in a negative way.
yes..i was prescribed and am taking celexa, welbutrin, and concerta all together celexa and welbutrin for depression concerta for adhd...
can you take paracetamol and concerta together
Ye. You can take them together.
Yes! i'm doing it right now(: concerta has been great for me.
Yes
It's like bath salts X10.
concerta is not related to your period. i am only 14 y/o and take concerta every day for adhd and my periods are normal
So long as you have a prescription for both from your doctor, you can take these drugs together. Remember that Concerta is a narcotic stimulant, and can be habit forming. Take it exactly as the doctor says and do not try to break open the pill. Do not take extra Concerta.
