Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would explain that Concerta may lead to anxiety. Anyway, I would like to directly review his resting ECG for a more professional opinion. A cardiac ultrasound and an exercise cardiac stress test are necessary too.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Wishing good health,
Dr. Iliri
