Guest guest Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 No, I want your opinion on what works for you and how you feel with it. Maddie can't tell me and we are at our witts end on trying to figure out what to do. I know we have gone through it seems like a lot of meds. Right now I just want to pull her off everything and start fresh:( But I know she really hasn't tried a LOT - there are so many that I haven't even heard of. I hope your day gets better!

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Melatonin is non-addictive. We use it 4 days in a row and take a break for 4 days... It is a natural hormone and seems to find it's own level....

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I don't believe these items are addicting.  I know a lot of children are prescribed benedryl for allergies 3 times a day.  It's great if they don't need them.  When my daughter went on Seroquel she no longer needed them because that calmed her down enough to sleep.
