Yes, he was on 2 non-stimulants first. We are on Omega-3's. I'm happy to report that I think we have FINALLY reached a happy spot with his medication. He actually needed a lower dose of the long-acting than would have been predicted by the effective dose of short acting ritalin. He is on 1/4th of a 20mg Daytrana patch with no side effects and excellent results in helping him focus at school. This is only day 3, so cross your fingers that we have found the solution!!!
