@WShades

I am on 74mg of Concerta XL and have recently returned from a three week holiday in France. Whilst there I managed to lose my last three days worth of medication so had to go without until I got back to the UK.

My point was/is, I noticed that before (like you) I suspected that my tolerance to the drug was increasing and that they perhaps were not working as well as they used to.

On returning back to the UK, I took a 36mg dose( 1/2) and the effect was immediate! The next day I returned to full dose and again it was like someone had turned on the lights.

I am not saying to drop your medication for a few days, that is your call. But I hope you can find some of what I am writing of some use to you…
