Concerta 18mg Tablet is a prescribed medication primarily designated for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children. 

This condition is characterized by challenges in concentration, hyperactivity, and learning difficulties.

It functions as a central nervous system stimulant, enhancing brain function by elevating levels of specific drugs. 

This positive influence on brain activity contributes to improved focus and attention, particularly beneficial in conditions like ADHD where the balance of these neurotransmitters is disrupted.

Following your doctor's guidance for this medicine, taking it in the prescribed dose, and duration maintaining a consistent daily schedule are recommended for optimal results.

Common side effects may include headache, insomnia (difficulty in sleeping), abdominal pain, and nervousness.  While these effects are generally mild, it's essential to communicate with your healthcare provider if they persist.

Report mood changes, worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts promptly. Regularly monitor blood pressure and heart rate, inform your doctor of any history of substance abuse or mental health issues, and avoid excessive caffeine intake. 

Following a consistent sleep schedule is advised to minimize potential insomnia.

In case you forget to take a dose of medication take it as soon as remember.

 However, do not double the dose; continue the full course as prescribed adhering to the prescribed schedule ensures the consistent and effective use of the medication in managing ADHD symptoms.
