Spoke with the child psych today about DS9 with inattentive ADHD. You may remember that I posted a few days ago that Strattera (the first med we tried) caused him to vomit for 2 days.

Psych is starting us on Intuniv. Anyone have experience with this?

There is a website called Millermoms which has lots of info on ADHD medications. Try this thread:

My ds was taking Vyvanse, and they tried to add Intuniv. I can't even remember why they wanted to add it. Anyway, it had no effect on him, so they discontinued it.

I've since read that Intuniv is often helpful with kids on the Autism spectrum. I have no idea if that applies to you; that's just the extent of my knowledge.
