[QUOTE="agee, post: 327928"] Intuniv is the medicine that needs a tapering schedule. You ramp up 1 mg/week to max dosage of 4 mg. Max dosage is doing nothing, so we need to know how to ramp down. We were told just to drop the Vyvanse - no tapering needed. The diagnosis has always been ADHD/ODD, but stimulants haven't helped. This is why I'm asking for advice. The doctor seems stumped. I don't know what other medications are out there. Symptoms are: hyperactivity, impulsivity, anger, rudeness, inability to focus, no regard to consequence, arguing, constant need to interact negatively with everyone, inability to play by himself, sleep disturbances, inability to deal with change, problems transitioning. Thanks, A [/QUOTE]
