Methylphenidate is also prescribed for ADHD-PI (inattentive). My son took this medication and for him it served as an appetite suppressant. He's also 6'5" now as an adult. So individual experiences will vary.
I take methylphenidate, actually. I experienced the appetite suppressing effect, but I would say that after ~3 to 5 months on the drug that basically went away. There's still a noticeable benefit for attention, but otherwise I eat just about as much as ever. But yeah, different experiences for different folks.
