I'm so jealous that some of you have found meds that work so well. We tried risperidol and didn't find any change except in appetite. is very sensitive to meds and has often had a neg. behavioral reaction. This didn't happen with the risperidol-so in my book that was a good thing. It would have been even better if it had helped. LOL is on adderall and that curbs much of the impulsive aggression. ( I was reminded last weekend when I forgot to give his noon dose). Good luck Donna and Maddie. Karyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
