Thank you for your question and welcome to Health Central's ADHD Community.

 

I am not a medical professional and would not be able to give you medical advice.

 

I am not sure what you are asking. Are you saying that your son is having suicidal thoughts? Or are you worried that he may, in the future and want to know when you should expect these types of side effects?

 

If you son is having suicidal thoughts, you should contact his doctor immediately.
