No - although beta blockers such as Inderal can cause side effects like fatigue, dizziness, confusion, impaired sleep and vivid dreams, depression and emotional lability.

Your child is only nine. Have you tried to find out what causes the migraine? It could be a food allergy or something else. There is also a very gentle herbal medicine called feverfew which might help him . without side effects. I think ADHD is hugely overdiagnosed in children and we should not be overanalysing our childrens behaviour when they are just being childish !
