My 7yr old son who has ADHD & ASD starting taking 10mg, Ask an Expert

Medical Advice

My 7yr old son who has ADHD & ASD starting taking 10mg for 4 days then 18mg for one. His behaviour has become more difficult to manage from day 1. He was very moody, aggresive & talking very nasty about anything & anyone. When we took him out he made a big fuss over just about anything & is obsessed with getting things & his way. We have suspended his meds for now as we are very concerned. We will contact his pead but was wondering if anyone had these symptoms but "got through them" to find straterra a positive drug for them. Do the side effects get better?
