Anyone heard of this new ADHD liquid med? It's primarily for kids, but I've heard it's also effective for adults.

It's methylphenidate, the same thing as Ritalin, but in a different form. I personally wouldn't want to screw with a liquid med, but if someone prefers that, then there's no reason this wouldn't be an option. The efficacy and safety of methylphenidate for children and adults is pretty well-established after better than fifty years of study.
