ahhh.... now I get it LOL

I just did a search for focilin & it sounds interesting - and strong! It's referred to as "refined Ritalin"

I assume (dangerous I know :) if you're only taking it once, you're probably taking the extended version, as they recommend multiple doses on the standard. Maybe you'll even be able to stop your late afternoon dose of ritalin

I certainly hope it helps :) Please keep me posted on your progress with it.

good luck!
namaste,

> I did just go to the doctor yesterday and she took me off of the concerta and put me on 20 mg of focilin. WOW I am feeling "geeky" today. I am sure after a few days I will feel better. She said the difference between concerta and focilin is that all the feeler junk is left out and it is not time released but time extended...the focilin hits you like a brick wall and continues at the same pace for twelve hours. Plus I am still taking the methylphidate in the late afternoon.
