[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 227051, member: 2423"] ML, how long has it been since you did the last dose increase? You should count from that point forward (not 4 weeks) to judge whether it's helping or not. From what I've read, it can take anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks to adjust to each dose increase. Unless the side effect is unbearable to either your son or yourself, I think I would give it a little more time to see if he settles down. If things only worsen, I suspect Zoloft isn't the right medication for him. MWM, what other medications are better than SSRIs to treat anxiety in children? Benzos can be addictive, and APs have a rough side effect profile. What else is there? [/QUOTE]
