[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 325967, member: 2423"] You might want to check with the psychiatrist about skipping Tenex doses. I've heard that you should not skip doses. It's a blood pressure medication that if skipped can cause a sudden increase in blood pressure that can be dangerous. In terms of atypical antipsychotics like Risperdal, some children do slow down in weight gain over time. My daughter M has been on Zyprexa for 3 years and gained 20 pounds very rapidly in the beginning. Today you would not even call her overweight (she might be 3 pounds over what she should be). I do think it depends somewhat on the child, her activity level, genetics and metabolism, however. [/QUOTE]
