[quote=Anonymous]Our kid with ADHD combined and maybe some mood issues has been on various meds for a few years. His ADHD symptoms are better now but still not great - he still routinely gets in trouble at school and home. Seems like the medicines might be helping a little but it's a lot of medication for what seems to be little benefit. So we were thinking about taking a med break over the summer and then reassess as school begins (or just before). I think the timing might be tough because he'll have to slowly taper off and then ramp back up. We are hoping to maybe cut out any medications that aren't really helping at this point. And maybe he's matured enough to not need as much? Has anyone tried this? How did it work out? Suggestions on what to do or not do? [/quote]
