[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 307036, member: 2423"] I agree with consulting an Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) specialist. Perhaps you will get some ideas on how best to medicate your son. My son's Residential Treatment Center (RTC) specializes in "processing" kids -- kids who have large discrepancies between their verbal IQs (high) and processing IQs (low). Does your son have this profile? If so, Seroquel is often used by the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) psychiatrist. My own son does very well on Seroquel. I know it causes weight gain, but in this case benefit has outweighed risk. In addition, my son lost 22 pounds while in wilderness over the summer. He has continued to keep the weight off this fall while working out at his Residential Treatment Center (RTC). Good luck. Let us know what the psychiatrist recommends. [/QUOTE]
