[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 318002, member: 2322"] He is on a pretty hefty dose of abilify--15 mg--based on my experience of 2.5 mg which did increase appetite that could definitely increase weight. Tenex we didn't experience weight gain with. I know stimulants are dicey with kids with mood problems, but if he is pretty well stabilized on mood stabilizers, might it be worth considering a low dose trial? My son does well with with- Adderal and Risperdal combo (not large doses of either) and has been at a pretty stable weight. Its tough but with such a huge weight gain I would be looking at other medications too. [/QUOTE]
