Tips for your child’s success

To make sure your child is getting the best results with Qelbree, it's important that they take their medication as prescribed. Here you’ll find some ideas to help them stay on track.

Medication-related tips

Qelbree can be taken any time of day

Choose a time that works best for your child.

What should I do if I miss a dose?

If your child misses their regularly scheduled dose, they may not have to skip the day. Talk to your healthcare provider about what to do.

Set a once-daily treatment reminder or help your child set one

That’s one less thing to remember, and one less decision to make.

Try storing their medication in the same place

It’s hard to take their medication when they can’t find their medication.

Consider buying a pill organizer

It’ll help avoid the “Wait, did I take my meds today?”

Try 90-day refills for convenience

Qelbree is a non-stimulant medication and can be refilled without needing a new prescription each month. Switch to 90-day refills for convenience.

Other tips

Aim for progress, not perfection, along the way

Remember, ADHD management is a journey. Give your child and yourself patience as you adjust to the routine together.

Consider including your child in treatment discussions and decisions

This can make them more comfortable with their ADHD treatment plan. You can ask them if their treatment is helping or if they are experiencing any side effects. Talk to them to see what symptoms continue to affect them.

Tracking symptoms and talking to your child’s healthcare provider is part of this journey

Don’t hesitate to be open and honest about your child’s treatment progress so they can best help. Communication is key to making things better for everyone.

Treatment breaks may not be right for your child

Some parents may consider giving their child a planned break from ADHD treatment. Know that this could lead to a return of ADHD symptoms and have other negative effects. If you’re considering a break, have a conversation with your child’s healthcare provider beforehand.

Navigating ADHD is a team effort

You and your child aren’t alone, so don’t hesitate to ask for help. You will find your child’s healthcare provider, school, and community can help you and your child on their ADHD journey.
