ADHD is different

Learn how QuilliChew ER® (methylphenidate) tablets work with your child's unique profile to provide consistent, predictable symptom control.1, 2

QuilliChew ER is a central nervous system stimulant prescription medicine used for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). QuilliChew ER is a chewable tablet taken by mouth.

It is not known if QuilliChew ER is safe and effective in children under 6 years of age.

QuilliChew ER is a federally controlled substance (CII) because it contains methylphenidate that can be a target for people who abuse prescription medicines or street drugs. QuilliChew ER has a high chance for abuse and misuse and may lead to substance use problems, including addiction. Keep QuilliChew ER in a safe place to prevent abuse and misuse. Never give your QuilliChew ER to anyone else, because it may cause death or harm them. Selling or giving away QuilliChew ER may harm others and is against the law.

Unique Technology: Consistent Control

Many things can affect how common ADHD medications work from day to day.
