Side effects of Focalin XR®
"Metabolism/Nutrition: anorexia, weight loss during prolonged therapy"
So, Jan, note the "during prolonged therapy." That means that if the
medication is stopped, the anorexia and weight loss go away. Anorexia
Nervosa does not just go away with treatment so simple as withdrawing a
medication. It's very hard to treat, and often ends in death. Also,
anorexia
nervosa is not just loss of appetite and weight loss. It is a psychiatric
disorder in which the patient becomes obsessed with her body image, and
perceives herself as fat, regardless of how thin she gets. There is no
indication that Focalin XR®, or any other ADHD medication, causes this
terrible disease as a side effect. Any finding that that actually happened
would result in the medication being withdrawn.
No, the "anorexia" side effect of this drug, is the simple SYMPTOM of
decreased appetite, which sometimes results in transient weight loss. The
DISEASE of Anorexia Nervosa has NEVER been associated with ADHD
medications.

Rich, there you go, talking sense and logic again. Don' t you know
that "sense and logic" means "lies," to her and to many others? It's
an eons old battle. It will continue long after the current combatants
are gone.

lol...
The*** most**** common side effects in adults and children include decreased
appetite, headache, dyspepsia, anxiety, insomnia, feeling jittery and
**** anorexia.****
Remind me again, Jan, where the word "nervosa" appears in that
paragraph. Was it written in invisible ink?
