October 1st L started a new medication. In the old days this would have been the basic medication and it has been great for him. Our experience was starting on low dose vyvanse and then upping the dose. That made him to sensitive so we switched to Astarsys, or maybe that was the 3rd medication. Then we switched to Atomoxetine (non-stimulant) and he was on that for 4 months. When he was having problems in school, lots of aggression and negative behavior we asked to switch back to a stimulant medication. He now takes 2 5mg tablets a day and he's doing great. He behaves so well, he doesn't yell at us that we're being too loud, he's so sweet. He's also 18 months older than when we started medication. He's a strong reader and catching up on math.
