thank you for yur reply. the psych says it is a side effect . i know when she goes asleep it is very had to wake her. the doc claims as her system adjusts to meds, it will be less of a problem. so i guess its a wait and see thing. she has been on several meds but this one takes the prize ! she was released from the behavior center in the evening and of course the doc was gone. i was not told what to expect. but the place will get a grievance letter from me. i am a parent that cares and i hate being treated like a dumb layman. sorry, had to get that out, thanks again and have a great day.
