Hi there.
It's different for everyone. One med might make you drowsy and make another person hyper.
Usually you should wait at least 2 weeks to see if the side-effects go away and take it from there. Don't stop taking the med without telling your doctor.
What dosage are you on? Maybe you were started at too high a dosage for your body.
Finding the right AD isn't an exact science. If it were Psycho-Babble wouldn't exist!!!
I hope your side-effects go away soon and that you start to feel some positive effect from it.
