[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 54301, member: 2423"] It is hard to tell from your description whether the 200 mg dose was too high and caused the aggression and other problems, or whether it is Zoloft at any dose that is the problem. In my son's case, he took 25 mg Zoloft for 3 weeks and began raging uncontrollably night after night, even after we discontinued the Zoloft. For months, until he reached a therapeutic dose of Depakote, he was trashing the house, breaking windows, becoming aggressive toward family members, talking of suicide and generally out of control. His psychiatrist calls his response to Zoloft a "prolonged intense manic reaction." Why is the psychiatrist starting Concerta? That treats ADHD, and Zoloft treats anxiety/depression. What is your difficult child's diagnosis? Sometimes Concerta can make kids with mood issues worse. When you get a chance, would you go to "My Stuff" at the top of the board and create a profile signature similar to mine. It helps us keep everyone's story straight when responding to posts. [/QUOTE]
