Yes drugs used to treat ADHD can affect appetite and growth. Is your Dr.
tracking their growth and weight on each visit? This is something you may want
to discuss with the Dr.

Subject: [ADHD Parents Support Group] Just a question...


My name is Nikki and I am new to the group. I have 2 children that have
been DX w/ ADHD and 1 w/ ADHD, ODD and anxiety disorder. The question
that I have is: Is it a normal thing for them all to be so little. It
seems as though the meds they are on stunts their growth. They were all
DX at 4 yrs of age. I am a little concerned about their weights and
height. Is it just me?
