Guest guest Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I am at the end of my rope. Need to know what meds will help control explosive anger. We just had an endoscopy done. As before irritation in the stomach. No infection, but referred to as gastritis. Doc said 3 months on prevacid. Been using over the counter colic medicine and gripe water. Doc thinks he has IBS but hasn't been able to take any of the antispasmodics. The behavior is always the same. He seems to be ok, except earlier in the day he has had irritability; then for no reason he hits his head on the tv or computer screen, and hunts Dad down. He scratches, bites, and kicks. We shouldn't be punching bags for a 19 year old but don't know what to do. He has been on Abilify, Klonopin, and Amantadine. Actually still is, but have reduced Abilify to 3ml from 25 since developed TD. Doc has suggested Zyprexa, Lamictal, or Clonodine. He already eats like he is starving, stuffing his mouth full until he gets choked. It is really hard to find providers for a 19 year old severely autistic male. Does he need to be tested for seizures? Any ideas about meds or biomed would be appreciated. D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
