Dear friend, these medicine are not helpful in long term. In starting period seems very effective but later condition change and condition become more worse.

The adhd children will be agitated and cannot be controlled and you can try good counselling while other non-drug treatments — play therapy, cognitive therapy, psychotherapy, and special adhd eating plans — have been regarded as promising, only behavioral treatment has been shown to work.
