[QUOTE="Malika, post: 635809, member: 11227"] Thanks, TeDo. You are absolutely right about the food, I think. Today J ate a much better than normal lunch, despite feeling nauseous (he said) and tonight after school he was, for the first time since we started on this, pleasant, amenable, calm, not exploding with hyperactivity and impulsivity as he usually is. I'm sure you're also right about it being better to split the dose. Unfortunately, it is a cost question. If we split the dose (he is currently on 25mg), that means twice the cost, which is not feasible for me. Maybe things will pan out on the 25mg. I feel sad that I have to give J a strong medical product to see him living an ordinaryish life along with his peers but hey.... this is the name of the game, right? I think the medication is having subtle benefits, such as improving his relationships and his focus. At a cost, of course... nausea, loss of appetite, tiredness and constipation all continue, though they are not severe. Merry Christmas to all. Christmas is entirely absent here in Morocco but we did listen to "A Christmas Carol" and have some Christmas cake for lunch :) [/QUOTE]
