It's been a while since I've posted. My son was taking 10ml of abilify in the am and 5ml in the afternoon. It was in liquid form. He was also taking procentra. Both were working well until he started getting a strong dislike for any form of liquid medication. He started spitting them out. After weeks of explosive meltdowns at school, his psychiatric dr. still wants him to take the same medications, but now in pill form. She said there is not a pill form of procentra, so she prescribed aderall. We will just crush the medications and mix it in apple sauce to see how he does. I've been reading that aderall can make kids much more aggressive. I beleive the adderall is 5mg. She wants us to split the pill and give him half in the am and the other half at noon. She cut back his abillify to 5mg in the am and 5mg in the afternoon. When he did take the higher dose of abilify, I couldn't tell if it helped more. I think it really upset his stomach because it would really make him gag and throw up at school. Does anyone have experience with adderall? Will it work as well as the procentra?
