Med effect--falling asleep at school

[Guest guest]

Okay, so how do your teachers handle it when your child falls asleep

at school due to a med side effect? This is the last issue I have to

figure out before tomorrow's meeting.

ph is on Seroquel. He usually takes it at night, but from time

to time misses that opportunity. In those cases, I give it in the

morning, but half the dose. (Or I can be *assured* he'll fall asleep.)

Going without is just not an option, either.

In the past, last year, they tickled him (uh, no) or loudly clapped

their hands next to his ears (uh, no.) Not sure what they've actually

done this year the few times this has happened. It only happens when

we miss giving it to him at night.

But...what would you suggest we put in the IEP notes? He does not

like to be touched in general. (At least not by school personnel....)
