The stimulants are safe and effective. If they help your child who is ailing without them, go for it! Despite people's stimulant prejudice, the fact is that few drugs are as well-studied as the stimulants with such an extensive record of safety. Amphetamine's been around since the 1880s. One cannot say the same for Strattera, desipramine, etc.
