[QUOTE="buddy, post: 484313, member: 12886"] Just today our psychiatrist said Prozac is notorious for causing aggression in teens. Esp. boys. She also said she knows how hard it can be (she has three special needs kids) and she said one of her kids had a nightmare of a reaction to a medication. Said it was really awful to go through. Since Q started it for anxiety to stop the "fake" feelings which ultimately were diagnosed as seizures, it is not really clear that he ever needed it. He still has over the top anxiety happen every day. So, if when we go off we see that the anxiety goes way up then we will just have to address that then. I think one less medication in him is a good thing, especially because Prozac is one of the dangerous ones with his enzyme disorder. But we will have to see, if he needs it it will be pretty obvious. I know for sure we can't just stop. We have had issues like when the pharmacy forgot to order it and we needed a new script etc...and like two days went by... then big issues happened. but if we go off slowly, hopefully no big deal.
