[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 306937, member: 2423"] My son has taken Inderal (generic is Propranolol) for migraine prevention for 6 years. It has not interferred in any way with his mood stabilization medications. Most of the medications for ADHD are stimulants. My son did not do particularly well on them in the long run for two reasons: first, they tended to depress him, and second, they caused fluctuations in his mood when they wore off in the afternoons. ADHD medications do not necessarily help with executive functioning, which is what you are really describing as your son's central issue. Does your son have an IEP? What help does he have available to him at school? Can you get him a tutor to help with homework? [/QUOTE]
