WE JUST STARTED OUR 8 YEAR OLD SON ON STRATTERA ON FEB.14 THE START OF WINTER BREAK. THE JURY IS STILL OUT. HE HAS ADHD AS WELL AS TOURETTES DISORDER. THOUGHT THE STRATTERA WOULD BE BETTER FOR HIM INSTEAD OF CONCERTA DUE TO HIS TICS. (STIMULANTS MAKE THEM WORSE). HE ALSO TAKES A VERY LOW DOSE OF CLONIDINE AND
RISPERDAL IN THE AM. HIS STRATTERA DOSE WAS MOVED TO
BEDTIME DUE TO SLEEPINESS IN SCHOOL WHEN TAKEN IN AM.
EARLY AM IS MUCH EASIER NOW THAN WITH CONCERTA, BUT
NOW BY EARLY AFTERNOON THE ADHD SYMPTOMS RETURN...NO
IMPULSE CONTROL, NONSTOP TALKING TIL BED! ANY SUGGES?
