[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 273290"] Frequent medication adjustments were the norm for MANY years with- our child. Each child is different. I recall our child being placed on a medication that her doctor had great success with- for other patients. For our difficult child...it caused nothing but heartache. Go figure. by the way, I have mixed feelings about Depakote. I know for females it can cause pcos...hormonal type issues...so I would personally feel uncomfortable with having my child on high (er) dosages. Bottom line: If the higher dosage seem to set off problems, don't hesitate to ask the DR. for a reduction or to try something else. All these "tweaks" are common. [/QUOTE]
