[QUOTE="klmno, post: 152419, member: 3699"] ok- psychiatrist at psychiatric hospital had started difficult child on 1/2 pill for 3 days and discharged me saying to give him a whole one at night and 1/2 in mornings. (This was because I called him Mon am with concerns that difficult child seemed hypomanic when I saw him over the weekend) psychiatrist said difficult child's thyroid levels were fluctuating and maybe that had something to do with the signs I noticed. Anyway, I was a little concerned about making that much of an increase in dosage at once due to difficult child being more sensitive to medications than most. So, I have just given him a whole one each night and none of it in the am. I've changed my mind tonight. Something absolutely has to be done about what he is like between 4:00pm and about 6:00-6:30pm. I'm not comfortable giving an afternoon dosage without seeing the regular psychiatrist first- which will be in 2 weeks- because there is a po and gal monitoring treatment. Do you think giving the 1/2 in the am will "last" him through the early evenings? Tonight, if he hadn't just gotten out of psychiatric hospital, I would be on my way to get him in. Also, how on earth can you split these tiny pills in two evenly? I tried- I didn't do too well. (I was trying to prepare for tomorrow.) [/QUOTE]
