[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 322894, member: 2423"] I hope you will call the prescribing doctor and describe your son's reaction before giving him his next dose of Intuniv. Whatever is going on does not sound normal. Our psychiatrists have told us many times that a manic reaction to a medication is not in and of itself diagnostic of bipolar disorder. So even if this is mania, it will take more than this reaction to diagnose the disorder. For us, unfortunately, it has taken many years of clinical observation to get diagnoses for our kids. And in my son's case, the diagnosis is still not firm because he is a very complicated kid with numerous bad medication reactions. Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
