    I’m on medicine right now that generally gives me brain fog. I hate it. Feels horrible. At least it’s temporary? Oh wait. Not as temporary as I thought, it can affect (effect?) brain fog for up to 7 years after taking it. Oh. Okay.

      7 years??? To me that sounds like it never goes away, people just stop reporting it because they’re used to it

        Antibiotics and women my age in general was what I was told, but I could be wrong.

        It could also be the brain fog making me forget!

        ADHD meds causing brain fog? What?

        And no, RebekahWSD said in another comment that it was for an infection, so not methylphenidate.

          Are you one of those lucky ones where medicine just works on the first try? Perfect dosage day one? Because you’ll find many cases of ritalin aka methylphenidate not working for many people, that’s why I asked, what with this being the ADHD memes sublemmy. Thanks though for pointing out they answered it elsewhere in the comments 👍
