[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 193003, member: 3444"] When difficult child 2 was on Risperdal and Concerta, the two balanced eachother out and he had a fairly normal appetite with no weight gain and no weight loss either. However, we had similar problems with the stimulants losing effectiveness over time and found he needed higher and higher doses to acheive the same effect. The reason it turns out is because he actually has a mood disorder with symptoms similar to ADHD. He can no longer tolerate any of the stimulant medications and is now on just Seroquel alone -- doing fairly well, in fact, the best in a long time. So I just want to throw the possibility out there that you may not just be dealing with ADHD. [/QUOTE]
