Re: new meds for my daughter

Darletta, only have a moment now, but did he not try upping the Zoloft

past 50mg? That's on the low end of dosage, which I read for OCD is

50 to 150mg/day. Hadn't heard of the Amentadine. I would wonder

about the nosebleed too. Ask the doctor or pharmacist.

Hi Darletta,

I'm so sorry to hear what you are going through. I know how hard it is to have

to admit a child to the hospital, or for the behavior to be so severe, you need

to.

My daughter, now 10, started on zoloft only also. She has been on the zoloft

since age 5.She took Geodon with it at age 6

.. I have never heard of Amentadine. What type of drug is that?

I know that 20 mg of Geodon is an extremely low dose.My dd was on 140mg before

we had to discontinue.

Have you called your p-doc?

Hugs

Judy
