psychiatrist from psychiatric hospital just called and left a message (I couldn't get to phone). English is not his first language so here's what I was able to make out- he wants to add a new medication that ended in something like "..xetin". He said it has helped some kids reduce cutting and has minimal side effects. Of course, he needs me to call him back and give consent.
I'm getting a little concerned about a medication being the added for everything when so far, they all don't seem to be solving the problems. This one kind of makes me feel like when my dr decided I should quit smoking so he rx'd me a pill to help. There is no way a pill is going to either make me or not make me quit smoking.
on the other hand, we're talking about something injurous to my son and I don't want to take unnecessary chances.
Any thoughts or experiences? Any idea what medication he's talking about? I think he said it comes in 25 and 50 mg pill form.
