ADHD Medication Long Term Effects - What Every Parent Needs To Know
Why do you think Ritalin is called ‘kiddies’ coke’? Because it is drug based on a type of amphetamine which is known as methylphenidate. As an amphetamine that means it is a Schedule II controlled substance and is available only on prescription and its use is tightly controlled (in theory). Forgive me if I laugh as we now know that it is widely abused by teenagers and adults. ADHD medicine long term effects have been studiously ignored by the manufacturers. They do admit though this drug can lead to dependency although other studies hotly deny that ADHD children who have been on Ritalin and other drugs have no more probability of ending up as drug users as normal kids. This is just one in a long list of ADHD medication long term effects.
Whatever the truth, I, personally would never give my kids those kinds of drugs. I would look for alternative ADHD treatment or medication and I know that ADHD homeopathic remedies, for example, have none of the above risks. Nor do they have any side effects.
Let us take a closer look at Ritalin. Why do you think the FDA had to issue a warning about this drug and their cousins such as Cylert, Vyvanse and Adderall, to name just a few of these hot money making products? This warning was about hallucinations, violent aggressive behavior, psychotic events and suicidal thoughts. But these are some of the very symptoms of ADHD ! So, some people are prescribing a medicine which over time will produce the very symptoms we are trying to cure. And what about the ADHD medicine long term effects which they have not told us about?
What about heart problems? There are warnings on the boxes of medicine about possible cardiac events in children already predisposed to heart problems. We now know for example that drug users will combine this drug with other drugs such as ecstasy and this puts further strain on the heart. We also know that the number of children on Ritalin or other psychostimulants are 20% more likely to end up in ER or the doctor’s office with cardiac problems such as irregular heart beat and/ or racing heart. There are no conclusive studies about cardiac problems but this would seem to suggest that there could well be implications for heart health as one of the ADHD medication long term effects.
Other ADHD medication long term effects are anorexia and other eating disorders which have been linked to Ritalin, as much as 30%! There also seems to be a tendency towards OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) which was noted in the kids who were on these stimulants.
Time to take note and look for alternatives. Behavior modification combined with some form of medication such as a homeopathic cure seems to be the safest road to take. I know parents who were delighted with this choice and their children were able to sail through the ADHD challenge without ever having to worry about ADHD medication long term effects.

Bipolar, ADHD, OCD, and child custody?
My ex-husband has been recently diagnosed with the above disorders. He is in rehab right now and being heavily medicated. He was admitted for an alcohol addiction. We currently have joint custody, but he hasn’t been a part of their lives much because we live in a different state. So, I am nervous about sending my kids to him for the long extended visits over the summer. Should I go back to court because of these diagnosis? Any advice is appreciated.
He has always been unstable, but there has never been enough proof to take him back to court so I moved out of state.
I’m a fathers rights rep, but also recognize the issues related to being bipolar, if any of this is true. It will take two years for him to stabilize on the medications. I assume he’s not working? He should be encouraged to file for disability. This is the difficult part is getting those with this disorder to do it. My ex-wife was bipolar, though we had no children. I had to send her away after watching a thrown coffee pot passing my head. I was fortunate in that I had friends to help since I was asked by the person answering the Domestic Violence Hot Line what had I done to her first to cause her to throw it in defense? I couldn’t even get a restraining order, despite the diagnosis.
She doing better now, and I hope she continues that way. It will be difficult to get him to stay on the path. I would suggest you ask him to relocate closer to you so that he can continue to see the children, only supervised by persons with experience in this disease. Your children still need their father, even if to learn the difficulties of this illness, which is hereditary. At least one in four of them will develop it, and likely at a much earlier age.
