[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 463829, member: 3184"] Intuniv is not a stimulant, I don't remember what class it is but it is not a stimulant. We saw things like this with my difficult child when he was put on a stimulant only. For my difficult child he had to be on a mood stablizer to address his mood disorder (for him it is most likely bipolar) and then? We were able to add a stimulant to address hyperactivity and attention. Stimulants are a quick in and quick out medication, if this event was out of the norm for him? Stop the medication and call the doctor. If your difficult child has problems with anxiety? A stimulant will only worsen that. I would call the doctor, and your signature says your difficult child has a mood disorder, is this mainly depression or cylical in nature? That would make a difference in treatment also. [/QUOTE]
