dd#3 asked me if i'd pose a question for her to the nurses on allnurses. she knows how addicted her beloved mother is to this site.
okay...anyone ever take the medication "claricept" for adhd or add or for any other reason? if so, did you experience any side effects, or was the medication beneficial to you?
thank you in advance allnurses peeps for any responses you care to post.

Not familiar with the drug, but thought the name was funny... sounds like a combo drug between aricept and claritin. An antihistimine for the aging brain or something! LOL

Never heard of it. It doesn't even come up on a google search. Are you sure this is the name of the drug? I'm thinking maybe she is talking about Aricept. It's not for ADD/ADHD, but for Alzheimers.
