[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 109738, member: 1498"] The Daytrana patch contains the same medication as Ritalin and Concerta. It's a stimulant. She could be keeping it on too long and the medication is interfering with her sleep. Or it could be that she's having stimulant rebound and feeling agitated as it withdraws from her body. Mirtazapine/Remeron is an antidepressant. Adverse psychiatric reactions to antidepressants, particularly when taken by children, include mania, anger, agitation, aggression and hostility. The question is "Is she better now or before she started taking medication?" Don't just consider her behavior in school, consider the whole person. If she was better before, you need to rethink both the diagnosis and the treatment. [/QUOTE]
