What is Focalin?

Focalin is used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children ages six to 12, adolescents, and adults. It belongs to a class of drugs known as stimulants. Focalin works by altering the amount of certain natural chemicals in the brain. This helps to improve focus and decrease impulsivity and hyperactive behavior. Focalin can also help patients with ADHD to organize their tasks and improve their listening skills.

Focalin is a federally controlled substance because it can be abused or habit-forming. This ADHD medication should not be used by patients with glaucoma, tics or Tourette's syndrome, severe anxiety, tension, or agitation.

It is important that you take Focalin as instructed by your doctor. Taking Focalin late in the day may lead to trouble sleeping or insomnia. If you stop taking Focalin suddenly, you may experience withdrawal symptoms such as depression, suicidal thoughts, or other mental or mood changes.

What are the side effects of Focalin?

Common side effects of using Focalin include trouble sleeping, blood circulation problems, nervousness, nausea, stomach pain, headache, loss of appetite, dry mouth, weight loss, and dizziness.

Stimulants like Focalin are known to cause stroke, heart attack, and/or sudden death in people with high blood pressure, heart disease, or a heart defect.

Focalin may also lead to new or worsening psychosis (unusual thoughts or behavior), especially in persons with a history of depression, mental illness, or bipolar disorder.

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience one or more of these side effects. It is recommended that you seek medical advice before using Focalin. Ask your healthcare provider about these and other possible serious side effects, as this is not a complete list.
