[QUOTE="bigbear11, post: 525883, member: 15808"] Hi and welcome. I don't have any advice for you from the disagreeing with the ex front. I did however, want to comment on Stattera. Before you give up on it make sure that you are at a therapeutic dose. I am not a doctor but you may want ask the doctor about raising the dose. The indication is 1.8 mgs/kg of body weight so for an 8 yo 18 iis a very low dose... I wouldn't expect to see much result. My little girl is 9 and 60lbs and is on 50 mgs per day. Strattera seems to work great or not at all. It may be that it is not right for your difficult child but make sure that you give it a good try... the non-stimulant benefits are huge if it works for your child. Just a thought... [/QUOTE]
