Ian Dewey
Medications:
AM AFTERNOON BEDTIME
Benedryl 100 mg Risperdal .5 mg Depokote ER 750 mg
Risperdal .5 mg Sertraline 50 mg Risperdal 1 mg
Dextroamphetamine 10mg Melatonin 3mg
Medication changes due to increasing mood swings ie., slamming door, starting fights with brother, yelling, crying, hitting things. Also, depression & mention of someone wanting to kill him. Paranoia perhaps brought on by problems at school. Ie., girls in chess club, and a boy outside calling him a geek. Older child.
I am having trouble disciplining Ian & Connor. I seem to have lost the “currency” for punishment. Sending to room doesn’t work. No TV doesn’t work. I am having trouble with mouthing off and outright disobedience once they are told to or not to do something.

School is going well academically except Ian has a hard time with the reading still.
Ian has been taking Depokote for over a month now. I am not sure what, if anything, it is doing. I also do not think the Dextroamphetamine is doing anything for his focus at school. Dr. Fiszbein increased his Depokote another 250 to be taken when he gets home, but frankly I don't think it does a thing. And he changed 5mg of the Dextroamphetamine to the afternoon which is making it worse at school. I called Dr. Fiszbein yesterday & am waiting for a call today.
