Anyone had problems with getting medication right for their child with ADHD?


Question:
It may be that your child, like mine, has BiPolar as well. They are discovering that it is not uncommon.

Answers:
I work in a school and I would say yes, this is very common. Because drug studies can not be done on children, we can not know the exact effects it will have on their little bodies. Often the game is a trial & error game to get the right dose & medication for your child (this also happens with adults with mental illnesses). I understand that parents do not want to play the medication game with their little babies, but once you find the right combination/doses, it will be beneficial to all. Please don't give up!

Is this really a question?
I don't know anyone in this situation who hasn't had problems getting the medication right.
I had adhd or thats what the doctor said, they gave me ritilin(sp) and all that did was make me more hyper, so they took me off of it. Im pretty sure I still have whatever I had back then but I can multi task like no other person in my family, I just cant concentrate on one thing for more than 5 or so min. I really dont think Add or adhd is a problem, remember we are all unique this is just one of those things that make us who we are, good and bad things come from haveing this "disorder". I dont know of this answered you question or not but good luck with your kid.
my cousin has adhd and my uncle has tried alot of meds and it doesnt seem to calm him down or anything all i have to say is just keep trying
