Something to consider: I have known doctors to recommend that ADHD meds not be taken during school holidays as they are supposed to help kids concentrate in school, the theory being that they don't really need to focus so much when on holidays and have heaps of energy to enjoy physical activity instead. There is also the thought that a "drug holiday" is not such a bad thing for people who regularly take medication if that is a safe thing to do. BUT, I am not a doctor and these ideas should only be acted upon following proper medical advice.
