Thank you for the information.
My son was initially put on Trileptal. He was originally diagnosed as ADHD when he was about 5 yrs. old. Now that he is older (12) they believe he is bi-polar, not ADHD. He had a psychotic reaction to the Trileptal, resulting in a break-down. During hospitalization, they d/c'd all meds and started him on Prozac and Seroquel, which seemed to help (for a while). They just recently switched him to the zoloft and resperdal (which does not seem to be very effective).
I just feel like his doc is grasping at straws, when prescribing meds.
