My son was taking Adderallfor past 2 years, but today he started Concerta and I wanted to know if it had a cumulative effect on anyone who is taking it. From my observations Adderall did have that effect on my son and it took around a month for it to be out of his system. I was wondering how Concerta affects you or your child. I can find from people who are actually using the product or have children taking it.

My son recently switched from 20 mg. Adderall once and sometimes twice a day to 36 mg. Concerta once a day, over three months ago. He couldn't see any change. From my observations it seems like he's thinking more clearly. I know that Concerta lasts 10-12 hours but I am not sure about cumulative effect.
