Thank you so much for all your help!
We did a test to see if my son's b/p goes up after taking his dose of Dex and in fact it did not. But his pulse shoots up from the 70's to the high 90's and above 100. He complains of severe muscle tension in his jaw after days of continuous use, but has never experienced the sweating. He hates the overall effect of the Dex; the flattening of his personality, sleep disturbance, anorexia and sex. dysfunction.
I will definitly inquire about the Strattera and I too thought a beta blocker would be helpful in addition.I just really worry, he's so young to be bothered with "middle age" health problems. As a college sudent he doesn't take the best care of himself so I worry about him damaging his health even futher.
Thank you again. Hope this drug works well for you and I'll keep you posted on my son.
Regards,
ZeeZee
