As I stated, some children react differently. An example is with Benadryl. Some children get a lot of energy and have an opposite effect.
With stimulants, I'm not sure if it's some or all children, however, my point was to apply a bit of skepticism towards trying medicine out on yourself as a filter for its efficacy on your child.
Edit: Here is a link for an example. It may actually be stating that stimulants in children do not have a paradoxical effect. I'm too uninterested to research this, but would be interested in a professional's opinion.

- boomboomsubban 9y agoIt's still not "some children," it's "some people," though I must point out that you did not say some children. Without the "some" it's a much more troubling statement. It seems to be the same for Benadryl, as the only scientific source for any paradoxical effect I can find only saw it happening in three adults. I'd take it the further step and say "don't take medicine prescribed for someone else."
