  • February 10, 2006 FDA advisers urge heart risk warning on ADHD drugs. The so-called 'black box' warning labels are suggested on 4 of what would be considered to be the most known and probably most used ADHD medications: Strattera, Adderall, Concerta and Ritalin. These warnings involve deaths and cardiac incidents that were associated with the use of these medications.
