Can ADHD symptoms resurface despite medication?

DH is on medication for ADHD. The medication has made a huge difference to his ability to focus and his impulsiveness has toned down. Recently however it's like he's having a relapse to the pre-medication days. He had a spending habit prior to medication which seems to have resurfaced, and he's just made an impulsive decision on something quite major that needs to be thought through properly and not just done on a whim. I'm concerned something is out of kilter again.

Do relapses happen or do the medications lose their effectiveness over time? Does stress or anything else make symptoms worse? Sorry if relapse is the wrong phrase.
