[QUOTE="jcox, post: 307522, member: 6583"] My son E has a mix of alphabet soup including BiPolar (BP) and ADHD. He was tried on Ritalin at age 3 which gave him his worst, longest rage ever. Five hours of nonstop kicking, hitting, biting, spitting, throwing things, thrashing his body, cussing, screaming, etc. We only gave him that one day and never had the courage to try him on anything else for his "ADHD" for a while. Finally this year during a dicussion with his psychiatrist I brought up the school's concerns about his ADHD symptoms. She told me the only two medications she would even consider with him because of his mix were Straterra and Tenex. After careful research her gut told her to go with Tenex. She started him on that in August and so far so good. He is doing better in school able to concentrate more, less hyper, lowered anxiety, more focus, his sentences are improving, etc. [/QUOTE]
