[QUOTE="Malika, post: 626143, member: 11227"] Is this medication a stimulant? If it is, it seems it is "safe" to take a break from it. In France, the usual pattern is to give stimulants on school days but not on weekends or holidays, though there is some debate about this and a few doctors disagree with the practice. Presumably it is harder to "re-adapt" the medication each Monday morning but against that must be offset the break in side effects and allowing the child maxium chance to grow and sleep normally...
