[QUOTE="mum2JK&TH, post: 77357, member: 1784"] Similar to all the stories above. difficult child uses it to help combat the tics that are caused from the Concerta. He uses the .5mg (the M&M looking ones is what difficult child calls them). We tried the 1 mg once in the morning and difficult child was so groggy that he slipped on ice and bit through his tongue, stopped that right away. I found last year that he built up an immunity to it over time and we had to up it half way through the school year. We took him off everything for the summer and since he's been back on his medications so far we are managing with just one tablet in the morning. Doesn't rid of the tics is just supposed to help them, can't say it helps with his ADHD or aggression (mind you the Concerta increases his aggression so who knows?!) As mentioned above you cannot cut them off suddenly as it can cause a dangerous spike or drop (can't remember) in the blood pressure. [/QUOTE]
