Antibiotic -Raging Behavior

February 11, 2009

Sounds like yeast overgrowth to me. Both my 4yo and I get really irritable

(to put it mildly) during yeast overgrowth. I found Candex to help a lot w/

my 4yo, and I haven't seen any negative side effects from it. Next time feed

him lots of probiotics during antibiotic therapy!

Yep, antibiotics kill off all the bacteria in the gut, including the

good bacteria, which then leads to yeast overgrowth.

Give probiotics and some antifungals to calm things down again. The

next time he needs antibiotics, give probiotics four or more hours

after the antibiotic dose, and continue this the entire time he is on

antibiotics.

We use probiotics all the time anyway. Also you can consider if

antibiotics are really needed for a particular ailment. For example, I

treat sinus infections with antifungals or olive leaf for 10 days.

This usually cures them for us. We have not needed antibiotics in

years. I get a few sinus and ear infections each year and the

antibiotics made my gut such a mess I don't take them anymore. Instead

I found that these infections were really caused by yeast following a

cold or eating the wrong foods. So for me, I was able to reduce or

treat the infections with natural antifungals and probiotics.

things to consider....I hope he is feeling better soon.

Based on direct experience from observations in the family, risperdol is one of

those pharmaceuticals with very dangerous side effects that does nothing to

treat the underlying cause, which, of course, the neurologist would not properly

identify if he were to stay in business (I've never taken the stuff myself).

Initially, the risperdol will cause a calming effect which may be a relief,

maybe more to others than to the patient. As time goes on, serious weight gain

is likely, then agonizing sensations and muscle problems may set it. Much worse

may result, too, but I'll leave you to do your own research on this. I just

wanted to point out what I've seen personally...
