My Son

My is 15 years old was diagnosed when he was 3. The Doctor started him on medication right away. I'm starting to think that it was too early to put him on medication. I sometimes fear the meds have made him worse off. Can this happen? My son has been on almost every medication on the market for example here is just a few of them..

Adderal
Ritlan /slow release as well
paxil
lovux
zoloft  
Concerta

He is currently on Wellbutrin .adderal

He tells me the medication doesn't help but when I mention this to anyone they advise me to not take him off of them.. They say it will do more harm then good.. Is this true?? Will my son ahve to take medication for the rest of his life?

He has been diagnosed with having dual - dignosed. He has ADHD, OCD, ODD, ANXIETY DISORDER  AND he scored less then 70 on his test that they did on him. So they say he is Developmentally Delayed.
