[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 589755, member: 15810"] That's not necessarily true. We have been dealing with aggression in my difficult child. The doctor has discussed with me adding Intuniv as a medication because it helps with this. Once medications are approved by the FDA they are very often prescribed for off label uses if it is found that they are helpful for other things. As far as whether 3 mgs. Is too high a dose for your son, only you can really say that for sure. See how he does on the dose that he's on. Do you see a difference on his behavior? Is he better able to control his temper and aggression? If he is doing well on a lower dose then I would leave him on that dose for awhile. You don't want him to be taking such a high dose that he's a zombie, and you need to leave room to increase the dose as he grows [/QUOTE]
