My son currently takes vyvanse for his adhd wich seems to be helping him alot in school,but he has been taking geodon and clonidine for about 6 weeks or so and he has become alot more aggressive once he vyvanse weres off he is totally out of control phyc says leave him on it since he gets good sleep but everything i a constant fight and he tears everything up wich he did prior to the meds but he just seems worse could he be taking the wrong mix of medicines or does it just take more time worried mom

I don't know how old your son is but I have a 7 year old grandson that is on foclin for ADHD and recently been put on tryleptal 300 mg. due to mood swings and not sleeping. This has been wonderful concerning sleeping he takes half dosage in morning and the whole pill at night.
God Bless

He should be adjusted to the meds already.  Seems as if his dr is not concerned with how bad it is affecting him just his sleep patterns.  If it was my little boy, I'd be finding another dr.  There are lots of them out there to choose from and since you're from OKC you have lots of choices.
