[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The doctor said there were studies showing it worked well with ASD kids. And his genetic testing shows he wouldn’t react well with an ssri ([/quote] that seems really questionable. lamictal has a list of side effects a mile long and the the genetic tests are unproven. 2nd opinion. [/quote] My ASD kid had really bad reactions to SSRIs and we used genetic testing to guide us. Following this advice could save you lots of heartache. Best to heed your doctor. Good for them for doing the genetic testing. My kid takes lamictal. Switched to it from Abilify. It’s a bit sedating. There’s a random rare rash side effect that’s supposed to be serious keep an eye out for that. [/quote]
