[quote=Anonymous]My 16 year old has tourette's as well. He is currently on Clonodine (Gianfacine didn't work for him), Sitraline and Buspar. It seems to help some. He still has tics but sort of manages them. Every professional I've talked to says that the next step would be putting him on anti-psychotics, but there is a real risk of him developing breasts and even lactating in some cases so I decided to hold off on those. If others have had their children on these medications with a reduction of tics and no severe side effects, I'd love to hear that.[/quote]
