This medication i have benifited the most from.It maintained a ballance that others have not.As i have a fast metabolizem,this medication seem to stay in my systom unlike others before.I started taking this medication as a result of worsening conditions brought on by the use of less exspensive medications.Insurance coverage did not allow prescribed medication and sustituded with generic,amphetimine with salts.I found a stabalization that i thought was not possible.When taken as prescribed ,the benefits were miraculas.I do believe certain elements can alter its affectiveness.Extreme heat,causing the release of certain compounds to fast to metabolize.This in turn causes some of the side effects listed above as i experenced this summer do to high tempratures.Sweating out compounds while others biuld up in the systom that can become toxic.The lack of literature given with this medication does not warn of all side affects and precautionary measures.As i mentioned extreme heat for me was not warned on the patient education sheat as well as many more im sure should be described.

My four year old son takes dexedrine 5 mg in the a.m. and 1/2 at noon.He can interact better and control his moods with this medication but the side affects do concern me.And the fact of them being very addictive.Any one with any input please let me know thank you..concerned mother
