- Medical studies have shown that Daytrana can provide significant improvement of inattention and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms of ADHD.
- Classroom studies of children with ADHD showed that children taking Daytrana not only tried more math problems, but also completed more math problems correctly than those taking placebo.
- In clinical studies, side effects were generally mild to moderate.
- Slower growth (weight gain and/or height) has been reported in children taking methylphenidate over long periods of time. Your doctor will monitor your child's growth/weight gain while taking Daytrana, and may re-evaluate his or her treatment if necessary.
- Daytrana is applied to the hip area each morning. When worn as directed, the patch provides medicine continuously throughout your child's waking day as long as he or she has it on.
- It’s recommended that the patch be worn for 9 hours; its effects continue for 3 hours more after it’s removed. Your child's doctor may adjust the dose or wear time of Daytrana to improve results or help manage potential late day side effects, like lack of appetite and difficulty sleeping.
- Daytrana is clear, flexible and discreet. Daytrana may be a good fit for children who don't like taking pills every morning.
- Daytrana is designed to provide daylong adhesion during normal activities.
- In clinical studies, the most common side effects of Daytrana were nausea, vomiting, trouble sleeping, mood swings, decreased appetite, decreased weight, and tics. These side effects were generally mild to moderate.
