[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 460047, member: 1550"] Doesn't sound like the Adderrall is doing much. Adderrall can make kids MORE hyper. Do you feel that maybe this is part of the problem? I was recently told that stimulants don't help kids who are younger than six, yet they keep prescribing them in the US. Also, under six (even six is hard) the doctors don't really know what is wrong with the child as the diagnoses tend to change as the children get older and we can observe more. I would take him to a child psychiatrist if this were my kid. I'm assuming he is seeing a Nurse Practitioner. I like them...I see one myself...but I don't think they are qualified to take care of psychiatric or neurological problems. [/QUOTE]
