[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 60813, member: 2322"] Just an alternative prespective for what's it worth. I hope you find some relief in going to a higher dose of Tenex. Tenex made my youngest far more irritable, and far more likely to rage, which it apparently can do in some subset of Bipolar type kids, so if you have have any concerns about your son's behavior don't be shy about calling your psychiatrist. You need to titrate back down on it, not stop it. On the impulsivity front, Abilify made a huge difference for my youngest. And on the Irritability front, Lamictal was a miracle worker for my eldest. Prozac didn't really address his issues, and made him disinhibited so if your current combo doesn't give you the results you want it might be worth doing some research on above medications, which are pretty mainstream I think. good luck...
