Is Cylert still prescribed at all anymore? I don't plan to take it but I see very few topics on this med here...

Not prescribed anymore due to cylert potential causing liver problems.

oh ok. I thought that was the case but I forgot. Thanks for the answer.

Though it does stand for reason, there are other medications that can cause serious liver problems like cylert and they are still on the market? What gives? any opinions as to why they stay and this one goes?...

Cylert's original marketer, Abbott Labratories had stopped supporting it and quit formulating it.

Reason because it has been linked to hepatoxicity and although the medication works best for a handful of people compared to other medications, generally it is not profitable to make a drug that has been made obsolete by 'safer' drugs.

Although basically what most of what I said could be found under the wikipedia entry of Pemoline (the active ingredient in Cylert), from first hand experience I did NOT have a good time with pemoline.

Visual disturbances (mini-hallucinations)

Ugh! But i'm sure for others it works way better than anything else.

It's very toxic compared to other drugs. The amphetamine class are some of the safest and well studied drugs on the market. Few people are not helped by an amphetamine or methlyphenidate based stimulant.... including dex which is lesser used but still popular. For others the non-stimulant treatments including stratera or off labels drugs may work. Dysoxyn is also said to be great but good luck getting it perscribed.
