[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those with experience, how does medication help? And how long does it take for it to take effect?[/quote] Finding the right medication is as much art as science. Sometimes you get lucky and the first medication works and it's simply a matter of tweaking the dosage. The stimulant class will start taking effect almost immediately. The others can take up to a month or 6 weeks. It is easier with an older child in the sense that they can tell you how they are feeling and discuss the side effects more clearly than young children might be able to.[/quote]
