[quote=Anonymous]Based on your description, it doesn't sound like the current meds are working at all. I would take a close look at the Straterra. It's been documented to cause irritability and angry outbursts. Find a doc who will work closely with you to figure out meds and dosages. You might need to do some more trial and error. We tried Vivanse (various dosages), Concdrta (various dosages) and finally settled on 25mg Focalin for my 11 year old with combined ADHD. Not a magic bullet, but definitely a big help. Every kid is different and you really need to try different meds and dosages until you figure out what's optimal for yours. [/quote]
