"To make this short, my son was diagnosed with severe ADHD at the age of 5. I've tried every single medication known to man. At the moment he takes 60 mg of Focalin in the morning with an antidpressant and a mood stabilizer. He takes the mood stabilizer before bed also. After school, I give him 5mg of Ritalin. Before bed he takes his other stabilizer and 3-0.3mg of Clonidine to force him to sleep. He has major anger issues. I tried Intuniv about a year ago starting at 1 mg. He seemed to be a little better mood-wise, however his Focalin would wear off at 2:00pm instead of 5:00pm. We bumped him up to 2mg He would take it with his clonidine and he would sleep, but not very well, falling asleep or staying asleep."
