Ooops! Don't take with Orange Juice!

Just read the most ADHD meds should not be taken within an hour of drinking citrus juices or anything with vitamin C, because the acid reduces the absorption of the medicine! Note to self...

  1. Wow. You really have your hands full.

    I bet you find the current debate on kids being over-diagnosed, potentially, a bit of an interesting debate having experienced the actual disorder(s) on the front lines each day in your home.

    Great blog. Keep posting!

  2. Thanks. I think a lot of kids are under-diagnosed, or wrongly diagnosed. Not every kid has a mood disorder or ADHD, but who comes through life unscathed by something?
