[QUOTE=lovetinkerbell;3416670]Hes taking 10mg at 8am thats when they told us to give it to him so it will work for the school day
That doesn't seem like a really big amount and it really only last 8 hours so just give him time to get use to it. Make sure he isn't taking in a lot of sugar, especially Mountain Dew or anything like that. My son was on that when he was younger. I am 45 and take Ritalin La 20 mg at 8am and another at noon that last for 8 hours.
He will settle down. I know it doesn't seem like he will but he will get use to it. If he doesn't then have your doc try one of the other drugs in that class.
Good Luck, Jenn
