Please let your daughter try the medicine. It could really help her, but you don’t know unless you try. Keep it monitored weekly or bi- weekly by a doctor and have your daughter keep a diary how she feels after taking the medicine. That’s what I did. I have ADD too and the medicine helped me get through high school and even college. I earned my associates and my bachelors degree. I was the first one in my family to graduate from college. I became a teacher. If your daughter does well in school she will have a chance at a bright future. There is always hope, never give up!
