[QUOTE="JRC, post: 728637, member: 21147"] My son is on this and we are titrating down. He was on a high dose of 17.5mg and is now on 7.5mg. Big weight gain but it does work for his purposes--suppressing mania and hypomania. Very difficult to get off this drug because of withdrawal symptoms. We're reducing because he was over medicated (brain fog, balance loss, etc). I think it's safer than many other atypical antipsychotics but I am not totally sure. That said, no one really knows what these drugs do to developing brains. [/QUOTE]
