REPORT

The effect is a temporary effect - typically the short term effects of any drug/medication are reverse the long term effects. There is a point where it no longer affects them and induces a reverse set of behaviors. For example to treat attention deficit , it makes it worse at first, but after enhances concentration.

This is a stimulant medication, it is commonly used to treat Attention Deficit Disorders and Narcolepsy.

That said, yes, it can cause some people to be hyperactive if it isn't the proper medication for them or they hae a reaction to it.

Some other side effects can include: nausea, insomnia and irritability.

You should speak to your doctor about this, there are other options they can try for your son.

Has he been diagnosed as ADHD?

You need to call your son's dr, The dosage may need to be adjusted. Usually if ADHD symptoms aren't helped, the dosage needs to be increased. But, talk to the dr.

Usually anywhere from about 15 mins to 45 mins. You must realize that the Internet isn't always the best place to get advise. These meds act different when some takes it that has ADHD than they do when someone takes them that doesn't. Your son should be fine, just keep a close eye on him the first few days he takes it and if you have any concerns call his dr.

Hi, I really don't understand why a sane doctor would give a young boy or girl Adderall! I take it at age 40 for adhd and it boosts up my energy, which I love, and helps me focus, and lose weight as well! To give this drug to a young kid will not make them "calm down," but do exactly the opposite!
