Does the appetite-suppressing effect of ADHD medication fade over time the longer someone's on it?

Many people report the initial, often more intense appetite suppression softening somewhat after the first weeks to months, as the body adjusts, though this varies. Some people find the effect stays fairly consistent for years, while others notice more return of appetite over time. It's commonly discussed enough as a pattern that providers may check in about appetite and weight at follow-ups specifically because it can shift over the course of long-term treatment.

Mine was way stronger the first few months, definitely settled into something more manageable after about six months on the same dose.
