Just spoke to ben's school. They said he was "awesome" this am. This is the problem: seems that about 4 hours or so after he takes his "cocktail" of trileptal, buspar and zoloft he gets manic. Not agitated so far, but non-stop talking, etc. Last year we figured out that if he takes his zoloft during the day (he only takes 75 mg. total--50 in the a.m. and 25 after school)it seems to "calm" him down. So what to do now? I have noticed also this weekend after we give him his afternoon dose (same meds) the same thing happens about 3-5 hours later...non stop talking. It also is like that first thing in the a.m. until he gets his meds. I don't think it could be the 1 mg. risperdol he takes at night, as it happens all day long. What has a half life that could be causing this? can it be the trileptal???????
thanks,
elise
