[QUOTE="P-nut2004, post: 428803, member: 11740"] My difficult child 'L' is also on concerta and risperdal, we did have to increase to 36mg about 6 months in for the same reason (and she actually lost weight) so I would say yes, they do start to adjust to it. We have also had other behaviors re-emerge and psychiatrist decided today to up the risperdal too. Its really a guessing game as far as finding the right levels & right combinations of medications, we have been thru several now and usually psychiatrist says "Lets try this, call me in a week/ 2 weeks and let me know how its working." Hang in there, eventually you will find the combination that helps the most, we still haven't gotten there with L after 2 years of medication trials and adjustments. ((HUGS)) I feel your pain :) [/QUOTE]
