[QUOTE="devira, post: 201236, member: 5229"] My difficult child is taking Vyvanse and Seroquel. When he started this combination, things were really going GREAT! Then either, his body adapted or grew enough that they are significantly less effective. He is on a HUGE dose 60 MG of Vyvanse. If we take him off of Vyvanse, he is completely out of control... we end up locking ourselves in a room so we do not get hurt. The strange thing is he is not actually trying to hurt us, he just is so out of control that it is scary. He used to take adderal XR, but it did not last as long. He is fine (although having trouble staying on task) in school. It is between the hours of 6:00 PM and 9:00 AM that are the problem. 100 MG of seroquel -- he started taking this because of lack of sleeping, and manic type behaviors he was showing. I think is what also because the Dr. thought he has seperation and anxiety issues. The improvement was instantaneous. But short lived. The reason for all the ? is my psychiatrist does not want these labels to follow him through school at this young age. He has done several tests, but I do not know enough to say whether he has done enough -- all the evaluations have been done by observations, behavioral scales and other paper types of assessments.
