My daughter was just recently diagnosed as ADHD and Oppositional Defiant disorder, for lack of a better diagnosis on the second one i was told. we took her to the childrens hopsital because she was hearing voices and attacking us and our animals and they put her on tenex. so far so good. i have read a few downside things about it though. i was just curious is anyone else ever used it and what the report was.

My daughter was on tenex. She was tried alot, and i noticed she had a weird taste in her mouth and was thirsty. She was also dry all the time using lotion on her hands.
It did seem to work however and the side effects weren't really bad. Actually they were alot better than the Ritalin.
