"My daughter has been on epiduo since 8th grade (12) and she is still on it now in junior year (16) and it really does work wonders.

"Been on Adderall XR for a week and I can tell a huge difference in my daily life. I was prescribed 20mg once a day. I am 35 years old and I believe I have always suffered from untreated ADHD.
