Is it going to still work on blood pressure? I don't like the idea of taking meds because I want to resolve things with diet and exercise when possible, and I'm afraid of side effects. But if I eventually have to start taking a blood pressure medication and the side effect is it makes my ADHD better, I could get on board with that.
They're reformulate it and call it something new. They'll still sell amlodipine for blood pressure.
Clonidine can do that
