[QUOTE="buddy, post: 470425, member: 12886"] Midwest Mom, thanks. I agree. It was out of character for him so I am taking it seriously. He is also so sensitive to some medications and others he could take the bottle and nothing....Concerta/Ritalin...they say that is mostly washed out of him, but it is the one that saves his life impulse wise so he is on a large dose. If we can get his anxiety down and that has a huge impact on his behaivor it would be worth trying to lower the Concerta in summer because that can lower the seizure threshold. BUT last year school missed pm dose and so when the first dose wore off at 6 it was in the middle of an Integrated Listening Systems (ILS) outing and I got a call that the "teen center" was threatening to call teh cops because he was running around and knocking stuff of the desk and screamming obscenities and just way beyond his normal outrageous stuff. It is rare there is a medication error but every time it happens it solidifies that the medication is working. I dosed him with short acting just to get thru that night and in exactly 25 minutes he was back to normal. (HIS normal) It is so tricky. I hope they call soon. No email from teacher, I told her to email me if he says it happens again. [/QUOTE]
