MODERATORS
Not currently taking, just tested few years ago. Was somewhere between 90-100kg at the time.
Only concerta(long release) was available. Tried from 18mg to 72mg(max 54+18) and even went beyond max safe dosage in my own up to 160mg. Only thing it did was raise my heart rate eventually, make palms sweaty and significant hit on a wallet because max allowed dosage is 72mg while only 54mg is sold. So had to buy 2 bottles, each costing around 55-60€ with absolutely no government or insurance support. Most expensive M&M candies I've ever bought and last straw in trying to get therapy for ADHD. No noticable mental benefits or any effects whatsoever.
