Thread: Focalin XR
It's a puzzle. Every kid is different. What works for one kid doesn't for another. And as you have found, doesn't always work. We seem to change every couple of years. My son doesn't do well on methyphendate, but does well on amphetemines. Intuniv had no effect whatsoever, and I know others that love it.
I liked him on Strattera, school did not. I got a call from someone everyday - classroom teacher, social worker, even the music teacher!
It has been difficult, one med will calm his body, not his mind, another the opposite. Getting both calm has been difficult.
He is back on Strattera in combination with Adderall and risperdal. And he is doing much, much better.
