[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are making a great and loving choice for your son. Make sure you do brace yourself for the first few months of trying to find the correct medication and dosage. Even the most pro medication parents can wind up in tears when they trial a medication and their child turns into a sobbing mess or is awake until 2am, etc. a lot of the side effects pass, and there are a lot of different options. Commit yourself to giving things a real shot for a certain period of time. Also, always start new meds on the weekend so you can observe. Good luck! [/quote] Meant to also say - know what the deal breaker side effects are for you. In particular, we have had to be very watchful for extreme increases in anxiety and other side effects that could be potentially dangerous.[/quote]
