[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 557193, member: 11791"] Could you give us more info? Concerta at 27mg is NOT a high dose... unless we're talking about a kid who doesn't tip the scales at 50 lbs even when sopping wet... How old is your son... For many kids, transitioning between Ritalin and Concerta is seamless... but not ALL kids. Yours may be an exception. (mine had a tougher time with generic methylphenidate than with Concerta! - there are subtle differences between formularies) What was he like as a toddler? early school? If he's somewhere in the grade 2/3/4/5 age group and becoming more frustrated, angry, etc. - it wouldn't be unusual. Missed dxes often show up in that timeframe. As school work gets harder, the gap between what they can do and what the teachers expect grows... and the attitudes of the other students toward them grows worse. [/QUOTE]
