> > My 12 year old son has been on 10mg of Adderall daily for ADD for approximately 12 weeks. The past few times he has taken it, he has experienced his eyes trying to roll back into his head and then his eyes moving up and down uncontrollably. He feels dizzy and nausius while this occurs. I was wondering if any others have experienced this with Adderall and any information you found out about it if so. Thanks for your help!

Well, my 12 year old is now 13. We took him off Adderall for a few weeks and then put him back on. He has not had a reocurrence of the side effect of the eyes rolling. Otherwise, the medication has really helped him. He went from failing several classes last year to a staight A and B student this year. He even took the SAT test in a talen search a few weeks ago. His 11 year old brother is now also on Adderall and seems to be doing well on it as well with no side effects.
