[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 391083, member: 1514"] Ritalin or low dose focalin may be the answer here. They are quick in and quick out medications. I remember having these huge bottles of ritalin when both boys were on it before they came out with longer acting ritalin. They had to take them twice a day each...sometimes even 3 times a day if we had something important in the late afternoon. Like maybe 10 or 20 mgs in morning and at lunch then a 5 mg kicker at 4 to get thru the afternoon event. Jamie didnt take his ritalin during summers or on weekends unless he had some big homework thing he needed to do. He will tell you that the medication taught him how to handle his attention issues. He would have never made it without it. I have a feeling he and his wife are going to have a fight about medicating their dtr one day. He believes in medication, she swore before she ever had a child that no child should be on medication...we shall see...lol. [/QUOTE]
