[QUOTE="buddy, post: 582926, member: 12886"] Q has said the same and it's not reasonable to think of stopping (seizures, brain injury and all)... Seems natural that they want to be what they think is "normal" so when pointed out his friends and cousins who take medications it helped. If you do want to try going off maybe start with the Straterra going little by little so you can monitor and go up faster if he shows a need. One thing that would slow me down is that I have friends where once symptoms came back they were worse, or the medications didn't help anymore if they needed them again. But what if he doesn't need them? We took that risk lowering Q's concerta and it was so worth it! No easy answers. O could argue both ways. If things are well, I'd probably leave them alone. I just am sick of issues. [/QUOTE]
