[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 370458, member: 1991"] caffeine is a stimulant, but it is a blunt instrument. In our family, it makes our kids worse. Probably because the amount needed is wrong, or its action is too broad. But if caffeine works like this, think about it - this is what is called a paradoxic effect, which is what they are aiming for in using stimulant medications in ADHD. Good news! Just don't overdo the caffeine! Marg [/QUOTE]
