I also have a son with ADHD.
Try changing a few things in his "lifestyle"
Nutrition & Diet Changes
Vitamins/Mineral Supplements (research shows they have defencies)
Daily Physical Activity
Regular Sleep Schedule
Behavior Therapy

I used to have it as a kid, my dad was convinced it was my diet and a lack of excercise. I would recommend taking him off the medicine slowly and getting him into sports, preferrably contact sports. Even the training will help his discipline. Also, a TOTAL ban on any foods with artifical colors, preservatives etc, (includes fast food). Also no caffiene, (Coke). It will take 6 months to a year but you have to be strict for his own good. Good luck

Probably acting normal. You need to STOP medicating him, stop making excuses for his behavior and be a better parent. YOU live with him, it is YOUR responsibility to raise a good and decent citizen (without the help of your pharmacist).
