[QUOTE="Mandy, post: 239804, member: 6245"] Welcome!!! I used 1.5mg of melatonine which was half of a 3mg pill. I would stick it in jello or applesauce and give difficult child a bite. I am not sure how old your son is so this could make a difference. He would swallow the whole thing and not even recognize their was a pill in there. Also our Dr. just told us we need to try a medication for a month to see the full effects and if it would work. Unfortunatly we will have to go every month to see her until he is stabalized and to do blood testing when needed. It is a long process and big hugs to you!! Oh, we are now off the melatonine because he is going to sleep on his own. I did research and found for children under 6 a dosage less that 5-7mg is generally used. They can get used to the medication though and then you will have to increase the dosage by .5mg to 1mg [/QUOTE]
