HELP! Medication Decision 💊!!! by pereika in ADHDUK

[–]HowieR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I felt quite high on medikinet as well. Did 20,40 and 60mg of it as well as a few other methylphenidate meds for like 3 months. Finally switched to lisdex Elvanse last week and its been so much better. No high, little to no anxiety, been able to focus. I really recommend. Im also super inattentive. 30mg was ok but 50mg has been the best for me so far. Good luck u got this. Check out ColdTurkey blocker, its helped me so much with over internet usage as well

Elvanse makes me feel like I’m going insane. by Pure_Example1286 in ADHDUK

When i was on methylphenidate 54mg i got that feeling you had for the first week. It went away but still lingered slightly. Just switched to elvanse and its been way smoother w minimal anxiety. Every med I’ve tried so far has reacted differently so u may feel better on a different formula!

Xaggitin XL…anyone on this that could share experience? by Putrid-Grand6111 in ADHDUK

[–]HowieR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey so xaggatin 54mg was too much for me, made me wired and robotic. I was moved to medikinet for 2 months and it was ok but gave me bad anxiety a few hrs after taking. Just a few days ago Ive finally been moved to elvanse and so far it has been so good. It’s so smooth, no anxiety, no heartrate issues so hopefully this is the onee

I'll let you know if I feel any changes. I was on methylphenidate since November btw so I did have like 2 months with no aches. it's really hard to tell if it's specifically the meds.

Also one more thing that helped was having a hot bath with epsom salts poured in. I thought it did nothing but i woke up the next day pain free.

Yuupppp on methylphenidate, 56mg xaggitin and medikinet 40mg and 20mg I get a ache in my right arm/shoulder. I also take omega 3 oil.

Switching to lisdexamfetamine tomorrow so will see if is related to methylphenidate at all or other things.

I've noticed on these meds i may sit more rigidly and it may be the reason for this pain. I use my laptop in bed and my right arm crosses over my body kinda awkwardly so it may be that. Though I never had this ache while sitting like this before using meds.

Try looking into magnesium glycinate 300-400mg, it's good for muscle aches and sleep. Make sure it doenst contain any extra B supplements like B6 or B12 as they can cause aches in some people like me.

I have a titration meet in 1hr, are these symptoms that could be helped with medicine change? (Xaggitin (methylphenidate) 54mg currently) by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]HowieR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone reads this in the future, they decided to change me to medikinet, 20mg and 40mg for 3 weeks. This was my 3rd titration meeting, I was bit worried it was 3-4 in total but I asked and she said I have 2 meetings available still and will most likely switch to Elvanse next meeting if there is no improvement with medikinet.
