[QUOTE="shellyd67, post: 380239, member: 6371"] My story is quite similar Jules. My difficult child takes Concerta 36mg but it took well over a year to find the correct medication and dosage. We worked closely with psychiatrist and neuropysch who diagnosed him. Intially both said to start difficult child on a stimulant but husband and I were afraid and decided to try Strattera 25mg for about 6months . It helped alittle but not enough with focus and impulsivity. We then tried Intuniv for a month and that put difficult child to sleep in school and made him lethargic. We then met back with- neuropsychologist and he asked me if I was ready to listen to him and try stimulant. So far it works the best. We did have a few increases over the months, but 36mg seems to be the right fit at this time. I would speak with neuropsychologist and give full detail of all medications difficult child has tried. Good Luck to the both of you ! [/QUOTE]
