> I would be curious to hear the doc's reasons for choosing effexor over other ADs. Not that I know effexor to be a bad choice, or anything. Just curious, because some docs give zoloft or another SSRI, while yours starts with effexor.
Usually the pediatric pdocs start with an SSRI like Prozac because it has been used the longest and has the least side effects. There is a good site, http://www.ADDclinic.com where there is some info on drugs used for ADHD in kids.
Negative talk, anger and acting out are all signs of possible depression in a child. Does your dr think your son is depressed?
