[QUOTE="SRL, post: 136873, member: 701"] This is one of those opinion areas we so often run into around here! Not to be contrary :raspberry-tounge:, but I'm of the opposite opinion. Outside of side effects, this kiddo is having the first stable period in her young life. I'd favor not doing a medication wash but do a gradual adjustment because it's highly unlikely she can go medication free. Reduced dosage or reducing numbers of medications, yes, but to put her through the trauma of withdrawing them in a relatively short period of time, no. I recently had an adult friend who did a medication wash of 4 medications and it was BAD--she had 36 hours totally blanked out where she doesn't remember a thing. Of course, this is my opinion only, but since you're asking, I thought I'd toss it out there. You also might want to consider a sleep study to find out what's really going on with that sleep.
