Guest guest Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 My son is autistic and has OCD and we have not found the right medication for it.... Actually the doctor is telling me that prozac is the only med with the least amount of side effects that can be used for a 7 year old. I did my own research online and found out that there are two other medications that he can take but the doctor is refusing to listen to me and I am not sure what to do. I would really like to try behavioral therapy but I dont know if I should because of his situation would be a good idea. He also has an anoxic brain injury from birth and a seizure disorder and mental retardation. So I dont know if it is a good idea to put him through that because I know that it can be really stressful. Does anyone know of any medication that is good for OCD that is compatible with seroquel because he is on that for his anger outburst and to help him sleep? Or if anyone has had experience with doing the behavioral therapy so that I can have a little insight before I mention it to his Doctor at his appointment on Saturday. Thank you!
