+3 #1 Reviewer: Beware of side effects, 7-12 on Treatment for 1 to less than 2 years (Patient) 2018-02-10 08:08
While this drug worked for my son to focus the side effects out weighed the benefits. He has gastrointestinal issues while on it that cause extreme gas. Secondly his eyes went from 20/20 vision to 20/50 vision that glasses cannot correct all within 18 months. This is one of the severe side effects. Please beware of putting your Child on this drug.I pray his vision gets better after stopping this drug.
