It may be that the Daytrana is still working fine, it’s just that it is not up to meeting the needs required with the extra occational load. Perhaps your doctor would be willing to prescribe a light dose of Adderall to be taken in the middle or late afternoon to help during the late hours.

I would think that marching in a band would be good for someone with ADHD if they can manage it. If you explain the situation to her school or instructors, maybe they would cut her some slack, perhaps by giving her an extra day to turn in homework.

Good luck.
