[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone tried ADHD meds in a nonverbal kid? We're having that discussion with the dev ped this week and I'm nervous. The ADHD diagnosis seems pretty clear -- every doctor he's seen in the last three years has noticed the attention issues and hyperactivity -- but I'm still scared about giving drugs to a 40-lb. kid who can't tell us if they make him feel sick. He just turned 5 last month. (He has a mild/moderate intellectual disability and MERLD. No autism.)[/quote]
