My son is both medicated and in a school for kids with mental/behavorial health problems. He's doing really well this year versus the last three. I wish he could have stayed in his regular school but not even medication made that possible at the time when he was moved. I do feel like the path we've taken has been his best option. His taking medication still makes me uneasy. But it was either that or deny him an education. There really is no easy decision when it comes to your kids.
