[QUOTE="JLady, post: 256452, member: 6439"] You've gotten good advice here. I just wanted to add that my difficult child takes Rispidal .5mg 3 times a day. We increased it 2 weeks ago from twice a day. It has taken a while to kick in but he seems to be doing pretty well for the time being. I did talk to the psychologist who told me that with AS, medication alone cannot do it all. They need therapy, guidence, patience, and a lot of help. I would get another opinion. We went through 3 psychiatrists until we found one that I was comfortable with. We too have ADHD and recently went up on that medication as well. It is difficult to find the right medication. Perhaps they can try something else. You need a psychiatrist that you trust. Good luck. Jlady [/QUOTE]
