ADHD medication titration
Pulse, blood pressure and physical recording during ADHD medication titration
Some ADHD medicines can affect pulse and blood pressure, so your prescriber may ask for readings before or during titration.
Titrio Focus can help you record readings, but it does not tell you whether a reading is safe, unsafe, normal or abnormal.

When recording a reading, note
- Date and time
- Pulse
- Blood pressure
- Weight, if requested
- Whether you were resting
- Whether caffeine, nicotine, exercise or stress were nearby
- Any symptoms you want to mention
- Whether the reading was taken at home, pharmacy, GP surgery or clinic
If a number looks unusual, check it again using your usual device instructions.
If you feel unwell, seek medical advice rather than relying on an app or website.
Titrio Focus is for recording readings and preparing review notes. It does not interpret readings or replace professional monitoring.
Safety note
This guide is for general information only. It does not replace advice from your prescriber, GP, pharmacist or specialist ADHD service. Do not change your medication, dose or timing without speaking to your prescriber.
If you feel seriously unwell or unsafe, seek urgent medical help using the emergency route in your country. In the UK, use NHS 111 for urgent advice or call 999 in an emergency. If you are outside the UK, use your local urgent or emergency medical service.
