[quote=Anonymous]DS, 9, has taken Intuniv together with a stimulant for the past two years. He currently takes 3 mg. At first, it really was helpful in reducing impulsivity and rebound effect. After a year or so, despite bumping up the dosage to 3 and even 4 mg, there was no effect. In addition, he had lots of falling asleep issues. He is currently using the Daytrana patch and we now find that he falls asleep with no problem. It's even possible that we may have to reduce the dosage back down to 2 mg. We think Daytrana has worked very well for him but the Intuniv also seems more helpful. He's never had any negative reaction to the Intuniv. FWIW, when he started Daytrana, he began taking Intuniv in the morning, rather than the evening. Good luck![/quote]
