One of the members of ADHD recently asked the following question on our Q & A section:

Not sure if my Dexedrine is working, have taken up to 8 10mg pills in the morning but dont know. How do you know if your medication is working?

How do you monitor your progress and determine if medication works for you?

Can you help this member and offer your perspective?

Thanks
