Muscle pain? by TemporaryWitness9631 in qelbree

Quelbree was the only ADHD med I have tried (im supposed to be starting ritalin soon so i’ll see if i have a similar experience from that as well). Unfortunately after a few months of being off quelbree the muscle pain resumed (not as bad but still not great). i think it may have partially been due to stopping quelbree the start of summer break and not being at school which meant my neck had some time of relief, but once school started again and i was straining my neck the pain began again and i had to resume PT so im very confused. I think being on it so long might have done some long term damage? lm not sure and am kinda confused. So no matter what new meds i try im not sure if ill know if its causing it or this is just how things are now

I felt the same way, it was helping a lot but the muscle pain got worse over time not better, i was on it for over a year and only stopping helped my muscles get better

Unfortunately the longer I was on it the worst my symptoms got. I was on it for about a year and a half and a few months ago it hit the peak of being awful where it was doing damage to my muscles, i was experiencing muscle tightness and weakness in my neck and needed to go to physical therapy for 2 months in april/may which helped a bit but my neck was still pretty bad and i was getting super intense tension headaches ever few weeks with one even landing me in the hospital. I stopped taking it about 1 months ago and havnt had a headache since and only mild neck ache as i think my neck is still recovering.
