Okay Mitch and Scott,
Since I am new to this pharmokinetics stuff, maybe you can just give me an idea in layman's terms, what I should suggest to my pdoc. So, if I have decreased the zoloft (from 75-50), then maybe ben is getting LESS effect from the risperdol? And maybe that's why he is doing more self-stimming? I guess I am just curious to figure out what is going on. So maybe he does need more risperidol p.m....and maybe that would help control his mania? Or does he need more risperdol AND more tegretol or another mood stabilizer? I think he really does need the zoloft or whatever, as it really seems to have helped with his anxiety when he takes it during the day. Yes, I noticed in the early evening he seems to be getting a little more revved up too - that is after taking the 25 mg. zoloft in the a.m. This COULD make sense!!!!! Okay guys, what do you think?
