[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 428712, member: 3419"] Hi Anita, welcome. We've got our son on Adderal (Concerta) in the a.m, and Imiprimine at night. We use Clonidine in between. It works very quickly and helps calm his agitation if he's going to rage. Now, getting him to take it while he's raging is impossible, so it should be on a routine, perhaps lunchtime or mid-afternoon. We tried Zoloft but my son had a horrible reaction to it. He's still quite surly, but in general he isn't lashing out any more. At 10, you're getting into the hormonal stage, so I'd do more therapy and role playing. But other than that, you're going to have to "sample" several medications and that takes a while. Don't know if you'll have what you want by June or July ... [/QUOTE]
