DD (8 this week) has appointment in a couple of weeks to begin titration onto medication for ADHD (dx Feb 2013).
What should I expect?
I've been told that it involves weekly appointments to check her symptoms, height, weight, BP, etc and increasing the dose until we find something that works, but what does the initial appointment involve? Will she be given medication to start straight away after this appointment? How much should I say to her beforehand or how much will they explain there?
