Focalin is a stimulant for ADHD. My son was originally diagnosed with ADHD and has been on a stimulant for years. Now that he's got an autism diagnosis and is getting more appropriate therapies, we are planning to take him off the stimulant. Keep in mind that stimulants can trigger some aggression and affect your child's appetite.
