My oldest son has ADHD and also high functioning autism. We've had a lot of trouble with aggression, to the point that his younger brother is a bit afraid of him. For the longest time, we thought it was autistic meltdowns that were the reason for the aggression. But now I'm thinking it's his ADHD medication.
S1 is currently on Vyvanse, and in talking with some friends who have used it, they have noted that their children also were quite aggressive on it. So I'm looking for medication options or combinations that do not cause this, or at least cause it less. I have a meeting with his doctor on Friday, and would like to go in prepared with some ideas to try.
So if you could share your experiences with various medications, I'd greatly appreciate it.
