'As required' use of stimulants

Posted by ed_uk on January 14, 2005, at 16:35:26

Ello,
Is is really necessary for everyone with ADD to take stimulants everyday? I've heard people say that intermittent use increases the risk of addiction but to be honest I'm not convinced.
Intermittent administration of stimulants to animals has resulted in 'sensitization'. Intermittnet use would probably be less likely to lead to tolerance though.
What do you think? I don't understand why this has been so rarely discussed on p-babble.
