"I've tried several ADHD meds, and this is hands-down the best. No side effects at all. There is finally a generic, so please ask your doctor to try this. Can get as cheap as $18, compared to $632."

"This medicine was horrible for me. I started off at a low dose. It gave me horrible anxiety, mood swings, and horrifying negative thoughts. I would never take this medicine again."

"I actually quite like Evekeo, it makes me feel like a normal person with normal motivation levels, lol. I will say around other people I can get agitated easily, but that's kind of about it. Obviously, I feel like my energy levels are lower on this drug, but it's really just because my brain isn't moving at 100 miles an hour, and I actually like how that feels. I've tried Vyvanse, Adderall, and Focalin, to name a few, but I really do like Evekeo so far. I like that it's short-acting, but if you are looking for something that has a longer duration time, then maybe this isn't for you. Another side effect of Evekeo is that sometimes, towards the beginning of taking it, I would have insomnia spells, but I experienced this side effect with every other ADHD drug I took, so I just dealt with it. After a couple of weeks, though, it went away. I also only take Evekeo as needed, which could mean taking it for a week straight every day or just once a week, and it doesn't mess with my system, which is a plus."
