For ADHD "I've taken many stimulants, and they all come with a horrible crash. Adderall IR, Ritalin, Vyvanse, Concerta; and they really didn't help me focus on important things. Adzenys-so far-has been by far the best stimulant for me. I have a history of brain injuries and struggled with fatigue (causes depression). Other stimulants helped me exercise, but my heart rate was too much. On this, my heart rate is normal; and I have my old stamina. If you are someone who struggles with fatigue, this is great. It's not for everyone; I don't get that 'bad taste' thing people comment on. Most medications that dissolve are disgusting; this one is painless. Hope it works for others like it did for me."

For ADHD "My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago (she's 13 now) and was on Adderall XR 25 mg for a few years. She was never hungry and had a hard time sleeping. We switched her to Adzenys XR 12.5 (lower than her Adderall dose equivalent). It doesn't seem to last as long -- but then again, it's not as strong. The good thing is her appetite is back, and she doesn't have trouble sleeping. She also doesn't complain about not feeling like herself (she is usually a pretty happy kid but complained the Adderall made her withdrawn). She's doing fairly good in school, though she has some learning challenges in some areas. Although she's only been on it a few months, I am relatively happy with the results."

For ADHD "Took this for 6 months and was not a fan. Did not last long (took at 8 AM and barely lasted to noon). I gained weight while taking it, the taste was terrible, and I swear my depression was worse."
