[QUOTE="bigbear11, post: 522214"] Hi Isa, We tried Intuniv for a few months and we did see some of the irritability at the onset. I think it was just her getting used to the medicine. However, It ended up not being the best choice for her. I do know a some people who it has been great for. It is a non-stimulant which certainly has a lot of appeal. One thing about ADHD medications (and I guess all medications for that matter) is that what work for one person may or may not work for another so don't get discouraged. As Insane said, he may have to try some different ones until he finds "the" one for him. That being said, you didn't mention how long he had been on Intuniv. I would make sure and give it a few months (unless you see serious issues) before you decide. With non-stims, it can take 3-4 weeks to be therapeutic. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
