[QUOTE="klmno, post: 219893, member: 3699"] LOL!! Yes, I have had that conversation with difficult child's pediatrician and psychiatrist several times over various medications!! (Albuterol, Dimettap, steroids, an antibiotic, lamictol, depakote, lithium, zyrtec, risperdal, and then difficult child had the conversation with psychiatrist himself about the anti-anxiety medication) difficult child had his 1 1/2 hr crime spree where he started a brush fire, among other things, and got 7 legal charges for 1 1/2 hr of action about 13 days after having his prozac doubled, he had been put on a long term suspension from school (I know- I did fight it) and I had been called to come and get him because "he was out of control and they could not handle him" at school 10 days after that prozac change. The prozac changed due to signs of depression and minor disruptions at school. Anyway, after I called and told psychiatrist all this, he told me to stop the prozac immediately that he thought it made difficult child manic. I asked if it wasn't dangerous to stop the prozac immediately. psychiatrist said if difficult child had already done all that after that increase, which psychiatrist said was still a low dose (it went from 10 to 20mg/day), that it wasn't as dangerous to stop immendiately as it would be to leave difficult child on it. But he also told me to watch difficult child like a hawk for about a week and not let him out of direct supervision. [/QUOTE]
