Focused Mind Jr., Cognitive Support for Children, Pediatrician Formulated, Stimulant-Free Supplement with Inositol, DMAE, Sugar-Free, Vegan, 60 EZ Melt Tablets

I was told my son lacked focused when he started Kindergarten. As he grew older, we noticed it wasn't so much he lacked focused, but that he can easily get distracted but can easily be re-directed. I found these online by doing research and have been giving them to him since he was 4, he is now 9. This has worked like a charm for us, better than getting him medicated by a doctor. You have to give it time and be consistent with it. It does take about 30 days for you to see full results. And it takes more than one pack for it to work. I have never stopped giving it to him. And ever since he has been on it, we have seen improvements. Also, we haven't had any complaints from a teacher ever since his last incident in Kinder. I would def recommend and trust the process! Just make sure you are giving your child one tablet in the am and one in the pm just as directed in back of the box.

Tried this product for my 6 year old after 2 months of using another brand. After a couple weeks we've seen a major improvement in attention span and we're not the only ones who noticed. Our son isn't formally diagnosed but likely ADD/ADHD. We did not want to jump to mediation and he is homeschooled and not having social issues so the pediatrician decided to wait. This past week his religion teacher told me he had a major improvement since the week before and was listening, raising his hand answering questions. He was engaged in his co op class, participating and following directions. At hockey practice he did everything the coach was instructing the kids to do. This is a kid who would wander off, constantly needing to move, fidget, randomly sing to himself. My mom even mentioned how she was able to read him a long story and he stayed focused the whole time. I highly recommend for any kid like mine. Only negative is he hates the taste.

I really like this product so far! My son is only 3yrs old, but has already been dismissed by 2 daycares/schools for behavior/safety issues tied to his ADHD. (Yes, he's already been seen & diagnosed by a pediatric psychiatrist. Friends have tried to dismiss his behavior issues & chalk them up to being 3, but any teacher who has spent time with him could see a clear difference between him & his classmates.) Anyway, just when I was at my wit's end and almost ready to resort to prescription meds, this product seemed to start working for my child! It took about a month. I will admit that we also took him to a chiropractor for a couple of adjustments that same week, so I can't say for sure what is working. Is it both? Is it one? Maybe time will tell (and if so, I'll post more here). All I know for sure is that my child loves how these melts taste, takes them very easily (despite some sensory issues & being a very picky eater) and he is FINALLY starting to understand consequences for his behavior and is sometimes able to think ahead about the consequences & change his behavior. This is HUGE for us! He is also coming back to me after he makes a bad decision, confesses it on his own & apologizes and tries to explain why he did what he did. Again, this is a really big deal for my son! As a parent desperate to help my son, I would do almost anything to help him. Who would have thought that this very reasonably priced OTC product could be the answer? I've already bought two more months worth. I'd definitely say this product is worth a try! (PS- I learned of this product from the friend of a college student who swears by this! She said it helps her focus.)

We started out on Adderall for my daughter who has high functioning Autism and ADHD, inattentive type. She has a hard time focusing in school or getting any work done that requires extra effort or discipline. Unfortunately, Adderall didn't work and gave her intense mood swings, so we stopped it. After some research, I found Creekside's Focus Mind Jr and loved the stimulant free, organic ingredients. She absolutely hated the taste and gagged on it. However, we stuck through it and shortly after starting Focus Mind Jr, her teachers expressed that they noticed some improvement in her work. She didn't require as much prompting and was able to independently do her work without constant redirection. I was thrilled about the news so we continued the medication. This company stopped producing the Jr. version for a while due to an industry wide ingredient shortage. When I reached out to the company, they recommended us to try Focus Mind Max since my daughter was over 8 years of age. My daughter loves the gummy flavor and has been on Max for a couple of months. We just had her IEP meeting and I was disheartened to hear that her current focus and attention span was worse than it was before we started any medications. Max didn't work for her.This is why I gave 3 stars. 1 star for Max and 4 stars for Jr. I am hoping others will have better luck than us. There's only one way to know if it'll work, and that is to try it, because our children deserve to be the best versions of themselves. I am hoping this medication helps everyone who reads this review because I know how hard it is as a parent to have a child(ren) who lack focus. Good luck

Made my child mad, irritable and out of control. Only tried one but it was so bad I didn't want to try a second. Make sure your child gets a good night's rest the night before, monitor what they eat and be prepared to log diet, time and the behavior carefully.
