[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 94947, member: 2423"] With all due respect, there are no medications that treat ODD. There are medications that treat the underlying causes behind ODD behaviors (such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder). Until you know the underlying cause behind your difficult child's ODD behaviors, it is impossible to medicate. That's why we recomend an evaluation with a neuropsychologist or multidisciplinary team at a children's or university hosptial. Each of my children sees a child psychiatrist for medication management. difficult child 1 began ADHD medications at age 9 and bipolar medications at age 12; easy child/difficult child 2 began medications for depression at age 10; and easy child/difficult child 3 began medications for anxiety at age 8.
