[QUOTE="maril, post: 244883, member: 5937"] Susiestar: Thank you for your response. I have been concerned and watchful after reading the information included with my son's prescription for trazodone; there's info related to bipolar disorder (as you mentioned) as well as info about the possibility of depressive thoughts, etc., in teens. His psychiatrist prescribed this new medication. In the past, I had made her aware that I stopped his Vyvanse and sertraline due to (possibly) aggravating his condition and have also questioned the possibility of bipolar disorder with her more than once. I think the drug testing is a good idea. In speaking with a rep in our county from D&A services unit, steps to obtaining drug testing were covered. We do not have access to previous periodic testing done on difficult child while he was involved in the outpatient partial program for D&A because our state's laws prohibit parents from finding out the results of drug testing; my son would have to consent to that. So, as you mentioned, drug testing would be something we could pursue on our own. [/QUOTE]
