ADVIL brings behavior gains for my son

[Guest guest]

My 11yo son had a sore throat on Fri nite, for which I gave him 1 children's

advil tablet. I gave that to him in the evening, and the following day's (Sat)

behavior was amazingly great (much better than usual).

Sat nite, he had no sore throat, so I did not give him advil. Today (Sun) has

been back to his difficult behavior. Basically, his behavior issues involve

lack of impulse/anger control and just freaking out over something minor rather

than taking it in stride.

I've previously given him low dose spironolactone, which was very helpful with

behavior for a while. I'm a little concerned about whether this is the right

thing to do, esp given his age.

So, I'm wondering what I should give to my son - for what looks like an

inflammation issue? Would spiro be safe? Anything else?

Thanks

We use curcumin powder.  Lee Silsby pharmacy in Cleveland, Ohio sells Enhansa

(curcumin powder).  We ran out a few months ago and our daughter was ok for

about the first week and then we saw her behavior take a dive.  Once we got

the

curcumin powder back into her, she bounced back.

I've noticed my 9 year old son behaves better when given Advil. I wasn't sure if

it was a coincidence or what but inflamation makes sense.

Thanks for the post.
