We saw the psychiatric this past Tuesday. It didnt take much observation to see how impulsive, hyper, inattentive, unfocused, non compliant, defying authority, difficult child is. I told the psychiatric that difficult child is like that all the time and throw in some aggressive meltdowns and explosions every now and again for good measure. Our hospital records have previous neuropsychologist assessments and a psychiatry assessment over the last few years that document the same kind of behaviour, so this isn't new, it's just gotten worse.
The neuro has agreed to wean the gabapentin as it may be exaserbating the behaviour and aggression. We are doing this slowly. He then wants to reassess the behaviour.
If nothing has changed with the gabapentin gone, he will likely prescribe Inderal to help with the aggression and anxiety. They are also willing to try her on a stimulant. They mentioned Strattera briefly (which I know is not a stimulant).
Anyone have any experience with Inderal (propronalol)?
And which ADHD medications worked well for your child?
