Guest guest Posted November 29, 2001 Report Share Posted November 29, 2001 In my humble opinion, it seems as if you might want a second opinion regarding the medications. I haven't seen any research that supports that regime for PDD/ADHD. Some MD's may tend to overprescribe. My HF/PDD-NOS and ADHD son has tried (starting at 5yrs)Ritalin(too much rebound), Dexedrine (similar), Tenex (ok while young, but doesn't help with focusing) and now adderall-10mg am and 5mg after three hours and another 5 mg after another 3 hours. It runs out at 3 1/2 hours for him. but a whole 10mg dose isn't necessary. Prescribed by a pediatric neurologist. Good luck and keep asking questions. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
