These work on neurotransmitters, or the chemical messengers, that are known to affect mood by stopping serotonin and norepinephrine from going back into the cells that released them.To partially answer your question if one drug is not effective then there are several other alternatives and also combinations of two drugs.The level of ADHD is best determined not by novices, but by medical professionals with rating and psychological tests.I am not going to mention any drug regimes here for obvious reasons. These are not vitamins to play with. Also ADHD has be properly diagnosed as there are other mental conditions that closely resemble ADHD. So please consult proper medical help and do stay with one doctor. ADHD cannot be cured overnight and for some, it's a lifelong condition that's got to be managed along with the doctor. There's no one hat fits everyone approach to ADHD.Also note that there can be undesirable side effects of these medications that needs careful monitoring of the patient.</blockquote>
