[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It had a moderate effect on my DD’s appetite at first but then seemed to level off to where she was eating as normal again. She’s a picky eater too but the meds didn’t cause her to be more picky—just to have less of an appetite. In terms of your concerns about addiction, there is a lot of literature out there that you can check out. Also speak with your doctor. Lastly, I’ll point out that this drug doesn’t stay in your system for long so if you try it and your DS doesn’t like it or the side effects are too much, you just stop taking it. There aren’t lingering effects. My DD is only 10 and has been taking it for a year. It made all the difference for her. Every family has to make the decide that’s best for them, but I’m glad we made the decision we did. [/quote] Thanks for sharing. I checked out some resources and wanted to hear about others experiences here too. Thanks again. So encouraging to hear it made a good difference! [/quote]
