ADHD medication rebound effect

My daughter is having an awful rebound effect once her medication (medikinet 10mg) has worn off at teatime. Her meltdowns can last over an hour and she is more aggressive and hyper.

Has anyone else experienced this and what helped? She’s only been on it 3 weeks.

This happens sometimes. Some find adding in a small top up dose helps. Others need a change of medication. Some find all stimulants have this effect on them and they need a non-stimulant instead or as well as.
