[QUOTE="buddy, post: 590131, member: 12886"] That's exactly what happened to my son....way beyond what we had already been dealing with....since he had just started our doctor said to stop. This is also why I only start or increase drugs on a Friday or holiday week. I never send him to school on new medications without days at home. Just like you, then you can see what happens. He is your son. It's traumatizing to go thru that....especially being restrained. You don't have to agree with your doctor. I'd never let my son go weeks to get used to it with this level of a side effect. I've now learned that it is worth switching and trying another. If it is not perfect, but neutral or only beginning to help...I'm ok building the medication up and waiting. But if there is a serious side effect....no way. He nearly killed me and was a skinny little 50 pound third grader..... With Risperdal, he was only four and four adults in his autism treatment program couldn't restrain him. That's why we went off that one too. I lost hope for that class of medications. But for us, Zyprexa is working..... I hope things stay safe and he does ok. I'm really sorry. I know how hard this is.
