My son was put on a different medication at first. When the insurance company made a rules change, the doctor put him on Concerta which is a form of Ritalin. That lasted for 4 days. He went on an emotional roller-coaster that neither of us could deal with, so I called the insurance company about the new rule and was able to get him back on the original meds. He was 6 at the time and would go from being happy eating dinner and watching TV to crying his eyes out for no reason either of us could determine several times within an hour. I never want to put him through something like that again and I have never again let one of the doctors put him on any kind of Ritalin.
