[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 101114, member: 1169"] The zombie affect is only in the first week or so as the child's body gets used to the medication. My son takes Clonodine 4 times per day and is never a zombie, heck he is still high-energy. We started with once per day ( at a .1mg tablet, the smallest they make) and he now takes a half-tablet 3 times per day and a full tablet at night. We have seen huge improvements in his impulse control and his sleep patterns. We are in the process of weaning him of the Risperdal because the increased Clonodine has been more successful than the high-powered AP. The doctor may now be saying yes because he feels that he needs something to help him. [/QUOTE]
