[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 635808, member: 15799"] difficult child 1 metabolizes it very differently. His did wear off so we had to split his maximum dosage into twice a day. I spent a whole summer getting the exact timing figured out and found that if I gave the doses 6 hours apart, he did beautifully all day. You might want to check into that possibility. The afternoon dose is smaller than the morning dose. Not having food in his stomach makes it worse also. I have gotten to where I allow difficult child 1 to pretty much eat whatever he wants (even if unhealthy) when he's not hungry just to entice him to eat something. That seems to help trigger his hunger a little. When he's hungry, it's time to break out the special treats (things I don't typically keep on hand so they remain special to him). Good luck. Overall, it sounds like the medication is working. Now it's time to work out the kinks. [/QUOTE]
