i took concerta at first at i had the same problem! my resting heart rate on an average day while on it was around 105bpm. i tried focalin next and had similar issues. both are methylphenidates, so i tried vyvanse next (an amphetamine) and the side effects are so much better. meds affect everyone differently but i’d suggest asking your doctor about switching to an amphetamine, or possibly even a non-stimulant medication!
This is in response to this ask from @oury-boros
