Hi, my son as been on his meds (concerta 18mg and melatonin 10mg) now for a while and what a difference in him there is. He does have his outburst's but other then that hes so much better. The other day he shouted me and said look what ive done in your bedroom for you, so i went up expecting to find something really bad, i looked around the door and he'd made the bed for me , i no it isnt much but its the first time hes ever done nything like that, ive got to say it brought a tear to my eye. He just seems so much calmer lets just say thankgod for meds!!!
i give dd 1 mg also, and it works for herit's great isnt'it? my 6 year old dd is on concerta and melatonin also, and it has done a world of difference for her and the whole familly, school is great, she is great with her friends, at home! i have nothing but positive things to say about it!It's great that you are seeing good results, but honestly, that is an alarming amount of Melatonin. the recommended dose is no more than 3 MG per 24 hours.I have never heard of giving that much melatonin either. My sons doc says 3mg and I give my sone 1mg and it seems to work.
My son might be on higher does as we live in Uk, I no alot of people whos child is on the same does, it might be different over here as his medication as been precirbed to him as we cannot buy it over the counter. Also i can give him upto 10mg a night, but at the minute hes on 6mg and this works for him.
