hi spamula i just wanted to tell u that my son has the same tics that u are describing with your son. he coughed or cleared his throat constantly and sniffed. the longer he was on it the more he did it. when we switche to vyvanse it slowed down again and then about a week or 2 later it started back up. with the tenex it stopped it after it had a chance to work (6-8wks) and now after a few months they are slowly but surely coming back. im not sure my ds is going to be able to take stims. we are doing a med break in the summer as the vyvanse is no good for him. he is very aggressive and seems to have an attitude all day. plus all the adhd signs are slowly coming back. anyway i just wanted to share bc some drs will say its not a tic. tenex did help us for quite a while. i can imagine if i upped the dose it would stop them again but we are wanting a brea. anyways good luck to you and ds.

now he is getting some small vocal tics like throat clearing and sinus stuff. Not too noticeable. so the 27 is good for now.Does he have a history of tics? Or how about pollen allergies? Perhaps the sinus stuff and throat clearing could be pollen related?
He has had a history of anxiety tics and they were made worse on the Vyvanse, but since we have switched the tics went away with the Concerta, but now we are seeing some more since the increase He does also have allergies big time. but it sounds different.spamula39879.386412037The higher dose is going well so far. no side effects nlike before. does have more of a rebound though
