I've just started on Concerta after being on Intuitiv for a couple of months. I preferred the intuitiv, my BP fell too low and got swapped to Concerta. Working has become easier, I found that I had a big crash about 6pm and now stagger my dose taking some in the morning and topping up mid-afternoon.What do you think the differences are between Elvanse and Concerta?
I’ve been on Elvanse for nearly 5 months. It’s ok. It definately does do something but it’s not as strong as i thought it would be.
Side effects are defo dry mouth, I’ve had a couple of headaches. Loss of appetite too, I’ve lost nearly a stone! Not that I’m complaining about that.
Work is going ok now but I’ve also started a remote job so it’s kind of a combination of the meds and the difference in role.
BTW - I’m the OP of this thread but on a new account.
I lost a stone in 3 weeks on Intuitiv and have stayed roughly the same weight now for 2 months on the Concerta which is unheard of for me.
