It has been a while since I have been on because my difficult child was doing really well up until 3 weeks ago.
Just got back from the dr. and he has changed his medications again. He has taken him off the imipramine he was on due to a side effect of not being able to breath thru his nose at night. He was taking 200mg of seroquel at night to help him sleep that has been reduced to 50mg at night and he added abilify 2mg in the morning plus added dexedrine 15mg for his adhd.
I guess what i am wondering is can the abilify make a child drowsy and if it does would it be ok to give it to him at nighttime with the seroquel. I dont want my difficult child to become a zombie on this medicine.
any feedback on abilify would be appreciated since this is a new medication for us.
