ADHD and ODD MEDS My nine year old son has ADHD and we have tried two different meds. We are on Focalin XR15mg and the doctor just started him on another half of a 15mg because he said that he is ODD as well and the meds are not lasting long enough of because of the ODD. Has anyone heard of that as been why the meds are not working long enough? Quote
