A BP should not be on ANY drug without an MS if you read the literature on the illness - Anti Depressants, ADHD, Steroids, NSAIDS, herbal supplements, vitamins and even some cold and flu meds can cause hypomania and mania and it amazes me that doctors prescribe drugs to Bipolars without a mood stabiliser in place, or it would if it was not so depressingly common.

First, I can find no indication that risperdal is indicated for ADHD. " In 2006, the FDA approved risperidone for the treatment of irritability in children and adolescents with autism.[6] The FDA's decision was based in part on a study of autistic people with severe and enduring problems of violent meltdowns, aggression, and self-injury; risperidone is not recommended for autistic people with mild aggression and explosive behavior without an enduring pattern.
These were very scary and very tiring as I would have these without any notice, day or night, at work, a store, at at home. I sought treatment again, and was place on paxil as well as xanax for the attacks, and having Post Tramatic Stress Disorder. I have been on the Paxil for 5 months now and have noticed some angry outbursts coming back into the swing of things as well as starting alot of things and not finishing them, I quit my job, having problems just keeping up with things.

Unfortunately it is the psychologists who are quickest to prescribe drugs for ADD. These drugs are very dangerous and the long-term effect is not fully known. I had a very lively daughter who could not sit still in class. I resisted intervention. There was nothing wrong with her. You have to look at the whole child, not just the child in a school setting. As it happened my daughter hated school. She found it boring and looked for ways to liven it up.
There are also other treatment option than prescription drugs that you may want to research, alternative herbal and nutritional supplements, neurofeedback that can be very helpfull.

Also I have found out that ADD/ADHD symptoms can be caused by physical conditions that cause the same symptoms among other, i.e.
REFERRING TO MY QUESTION PREVIOUSLY, THE ONLY ANSWER FOR THIS MOTHER SEEMS TO BE DRUGS FOR ADHD AND ADD BECAUSE THIS CHILD HAS NOT EVEN BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH A CONDITION WHEN ITS CLEARLY OBVIOUS THAT SHE HAS ONE.

The Cymbalta kept me awake at first, but now is just causes "dry mouth". It's like am swallowing sand instead of salvia. Not sure if the Cymbalta works or not. I take Neurontin 9 times a day. The Neurontin makes me feel tired and messes with my memory. Just what FM people need to have right along with Fibro Fog. I think the doctors are just messing with us on the Meds.

I agree with allmymarbles drugs are horrible for these kids. Bipolar and ADHD can be treated naturally if your homework is done right. It means making sure your child is actually sleeping and not waiting until you go to bed and walking around all night displaying anger. When a child has sleep deprivation they have a "second wind" as my grandmother called it. They will fight sleep because of nightmares. It can take weeks to make up the deficit.
