[quote=Anonymous]To OP - Yes agreed with all that has been said about an instant positive change. But . . . finding the right medicine and dose took months for us. Not only do you need to see changes at home, you need to take into account teacher feedback, side effects, and have monthly med checks. Other therapies and strategies still need to stay in play as well. It's all worth it but it's not quite a light switch or panacea IMO. To PP with the 7 yo. I would NOT suggest taking it on an as needed basis until you are well along in finding a dose / med that works. I think for the younger ones this causes worse side effects, which would have lessened or disappeared if you stayed on it day to date. Also the kiddo needs to get used the routine and the effect as well.[/quote]
