Some of these meds can cause real withdrawl symptoms. Withdrawl that can make any adult cringe in their tracks. Some adults say quitting SSRI's was harder than opiates.
I just find it very cruel that a doctor would rip him off zoloft and then put him on ritalin so quickly.
Theres not much long term literature when it comes to drug combinations, let alone in children.
This combination is really no mans land.
I'd like to speak with the doctor myself.
Oh well.
Do the best you can, and if theres ever an opportunity for a second medical oppinion.....take it!
