[quote=Anonymous]First, most kids do not develop tics at all. It is not a frequent side effect. For kids who do develop tics, if they are minor, the research shows that most tics will go away by the 6 week mark. For my DS, who had tics before we ever started meds, most of them clearly made the tics worse and we stopped the med (think a transition from a small throat-clearing tic to complex facial grimaces). The exception was Ritalin, so that's what he takes.[/quote]
