My son was changed from Adderall to Concerta. He started having a lot of side effects on 18mg. I told the doctor and he doubled the dose to 36mg. In three days, he went totally out of control. In the following 4 days, we had 3 emergency room visits, two hospitals and two ambulance rides. Now I am facing lots of bills and no help from the doctor. My son's side effects were weight loss, loss of appetite, mervousness, fast heartbeat, unusual sadness, irritability, dilated pupils, hallucinations, twitching, temors, throwing up, yelling at me, nose bleeds, behavior changes, and dizziness. He now is off all ADHA medications. Please read what the side effects are and stop the medication if they show up.
My son is also on Concerta as well as other medications for his asthma. As I read your posting I am noticing the same side effects in my child. I don't know if it is from the concerta or all three of the meds he is taking. He takes Advair and Singular and the side effects are just as bad. I see all of these in my child and I am very concerned. I think I am going to discontinue his meds for the next two days to see if he is more happy, have a appetite, less vommiting and no nose bleeding.
