Attention deficit disorder
As per pshyological evaluation doctor diagnosed ADD. Methylphenidate taking 4 months up to 40 mg. No improvement. So doctor changed medicine.
Then modalert 100 mg too much head ache drowsiness, feel tired, sleepy always, but effective short term memory and attention improved its really good one when i read any article listen news. Taken only for 3 days. So doctor changed to waklert
Doctor prescribed me WAKLERT 75mg 10 days works good but felt memory issues. Better focus and concentration feel energetic but when i read it does not able to memory. So i have to read it again and again. Understanding and learning skills are not better than modalert.
What shall i do, will waklert help me or ask doctor to change any medication.

Hello..modalert and waklert are almost similar drugs which change only in their spacial configuration. You were benefitted with 100 mg but due to side effects it was discontinued it seems.
Atomoxetine tablet can be preferable for your condition and can be started after consulting your doctor.
Engaging in activities which will increase your attention span might help you. Consult a psychologist for the same.
