[QUOTE="forkeeps251, post: 540910, member: 12854"] difficult child's latest psychiatric appointment was today. He saw a new person (a nurse practitioner). Although I did like some of what she said, some of it I found a little scary because she seems to be leaning more towards difficult child having a mood disorder rather than just ADHD and anxiety, as was diagnosed a few months ago by a private psychologist and the school psychiatric. She even said she thought we would end up with something like seroquel, which I don't like the thought of. But what I'm actually wondering is about the new medications she perscribed him. She took him off Adderall (he had lost weight and it wasn't doing anything) and wants to start him on Intuniv 1mg. At this point I am still researching it. I have the script but I haven't filled it yet. I would like to get some more info on side effects and success. I think she perscribed this because she thought it would help with his aggression and impulsiveness. I'm not sure she had a complete history on him though... I've gotten such good feedback on here I though I would see if anyone has used this and what has the success been. [/QUOTE]
