[quote=Anonymous]Stuttering is caused by neurological issues between the areas of the brain that process language and those that control motor movements, and it is not unheard of for trauma or medications to temporarily cause disruptions in these pathways. However, the way people stutter when it is their natural wiring versus brought on by an external cause often differs. It's very interesting from the research end, but as the pp pointed out, generally not worth it for the person taking the medication. I hope your dc is doing better and might benefit from a different type of medication.[/quote]
