[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 478138"] *hugs* You have a starting point on a map to help him. You know that he will a lot of advocating from you for a long time. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids often react to medications differently than NT kids, so keep a close eye on ANY medication changes (medication, dose, time taken, etc) for unexpected effects (good or bad). Kiddo took Intuniv for two days and I pulled her off of it because it started up her "feet issue" (some medications cause this bad pins & needles tingling in her feet at bedtime, to the point of pain and no sleep). Docs expected Abilify to sedate her - it doesn't. It activates her, so I give it to her in the morning instead of at bedtime. That's an off-beat effect we can live with. [/QUOTE]
