Depakote use for movements and inattention

[Guest guest]

Our son has been Risperidone for a few months and although the aggression

has come down substantially, his movement disorder has increased. We are

considering going to the doctor tomorrow to discuss the use of Depakote. His

PITANDs movements are very strong and I have read the use of Valproic acid

helps Syndenham's Chorea movements. Any help towards this decision would be

appreciated. He is currently on Azithromycin 250mg 3x week, .25mg of

Risperidone, B complex (AOR Brand), probiotics and Genestra Amino Acid

protein powder. His movements and inattention are his biggest issues. He

responds poorly to stimulants and cannot tolerate Strattera. They do not

make Tenex here in Canada. We have tried Clonidine but it makes him groggy.

We have a positive Lyme test from IGeneX and are waiting on results for

co-infections. We have negative Babesia from IGeneX.
