Anyone have any long term experiences? Ds13 (ASD/ADHD - having difficult puberty!) has been on it 2 weeks and must say I'm amazed. Much less aggression, so much calmer in general - has not had a hyper episode all week, and the swearing (which was bordering on tourettes ) has almost stopped.

Do the effects last ????

There's been a couple of threads recently - try an advanced search.

DS has been on it for a few years. We had to up the dose a tiny bit but he's a happy boy (most of the time) now. Mind, he's just hitting puberty so the next year's going to be interesting!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you raspberry Smile

DS took it for 2 years and it really helped to curb his aggression during puberty. He was weaned off it just before his 16th birthday 11 months ago. For us it made a huge difference and was so much better than the alternative.
Hope it is a success for you too.

ds has been on it for about 18 months and it is still working well for him.
