For ADHD "I have been taking Mydayis 25mg for 2 months, and I have experienced ZERO negative side effects. I was previously prescribed Adderall XR & IR and Vyvanse. Those medications were somewhat effective; however, they came with a lot of side effects (loss of appetite, moodiness, insomnia, heart palpitations, dry mouth, dry skin, and anxiousness). The best thing about Mydayis is the way in which it feels 'natural' and the way it steadily tapers off throughout the day. With previous medications, I could actually feel the effects coming and going and I would get these sensations of feeling 'high.' With Mydayis, I never actually FEEL the medication taking effect, but I can tell a HUGE difference in my performance, mood, and ability to focus. I even feel relaxed, as if my mind can finally make sense of racing thoughts and feelings. I usually take my medication around 8 AM and I am easily able to fall asleep by 11 PM. With Mydayis, My Day Is manageable!"

For ADHD "I’ve been on Vyvanse 40-60 mg for 8 years, and it was no longer effective, so I asked my doctor to switch me to Mydayis 50 mg. It took me a few weeks to fully adjust to the medication, but once I was used to it, there was a big difference, and the meds worked the way Vyvanse worked for me when I first started using it. I was actually able to complete tasks, stay organized, and study for school again. Like Vyvanse, and unlike Adderall IR (which I've also tried), Mydayis doesn’t have any noticeable kick or come down for me and doesn’t give me a super dry mouth either. I try to stay hydrated while on Mydayis, even though I won’t feel like drinking, because I notice a difference in effect when I’m hydrated vs. dehydrated. It doesn’t keep me up late at night and lasts throughout the day. I feel the most composed too on Mydayis in terms of being emotionally regulated and am able to judge my options instead of acting impulsively. It’s the best long-acting med I’ve tried!"

For ADHD "Wow. This stuff is so effective I don't even notice it coming or going. I've tried most of all the ADHD medications, and this one helped a lot of my major symptoms, but I still find myself randomly starting a project without finishing it. Usually, I take both or switch around Adderall IR, Zenzedi, then a long-term one like this or Vyvanse. I like it loads more than Vyvanse. I've been on all of these for most of 12 years, and if it's helping my dry mouth without affecting my appetite, I'm happy. Note I do not even feel Adderall or anything kick in, but with this one I just notice I'm randomly being more productive, and so even at max dose, I have no idea what your tolerance is. Way better than the generic Adderall XR. It's like the adult's Adderall XR that lasts a really long time."

For ADHD "It's helping with talking too much, binge eating, organization, memory, motivation, prioritizing tasks, memory, breaking hyper-focus, listening, conveying thoughts, studying, homeschooling my preschooler, staying awake all day, sleeping all night, and my organization is creating more structure for my kids. I have everything ready before they wake, so we're not fighting before school. The best part is I'm feeling more energy, so I'm walking the dog, actually wanting to play with my kids outside, and my libido came back! lol Unfortunately, it didn't take away my anxiety and irritability as much as Vyvanse did. Only side effects I've noticed: I need to up my fiber intake, and I have dry mouth (water bottle in purse, gum, and a fluoride mouthwash to keep my teeth healthy - these things seem to work great). The first 2 days at night, I felt so cold, it took me a while to fall asleep, and I couldn't stop scratching my scalp - so weird! Other than that, it's working great!"

For ADHD "I was on Vyvanse 50 mg for bulimia, it stopped the binge eating. However, I could never fall asleep, not even with a sleeping pill, and I always felt so very depressed in the late afternoon. My doctor told me about Mydayis. I switched to Mydayis 25 mg, which works even better!!! I get a good night's sleep without a sleeping pill. The only side effect is dry mouth and an occasional headache if I wait too late to take it. It's always best to take it early in the morning. I take mine at 6 am. I still have remained free from any binge eating episodes. Thankful for this medication!"

For ADHD "It's okay, but it's very slow to kick in, and when it goes off, it is very slow, so it's kind of torturing. ADD people will know what I'm talking about. The panic attacks come and go, and focus is not that great. It's a lot cheaper if you use a coupon. Vyvanse has fewer side effects but is more expensive. By the way, it gives you a dry mouth, so consistently drink..."

For ADHD "Switched from Concerta to Mydayis for the longer duration mechanism Mydayis offers. Was started on 25 mg of Mydayis. ADD symptoms improved, but I experienced dry mouth, dizziness, heart increase, and appetite decrease, which subsided after the first week. Second week, I felt like the dose was not effective. Doc switched me to 37.5 mg of Mydayis, and so far symptoms of ADD improved, but side effects are rough. Dry mouth, headache, dizziness, lack of appetite, increased anxiety. I’m on day 4 or 5, so hoping the side effects subside when my body adjusts to the higher dose... fingers crossed."
