Is It Necessary To Get Hospitalized For Abnormal And Inconsistent Behavior Of Children At School?

My daughter is 10 years old and has been on psychotic medications since she was 5. Right now her normal regiment includes 60mg of ritalin spread out throughout the day, 2 mg Intuniv and 7.5mg Abilify in the AM and .5 Risperdol at night! I know everyone is different but I really want to do a med was and make sure everything she is on is necessary! I spoke with her psychiatrist and we bad planned to do it over the summer but now he saying that it would not be good since her aggressive behaviors have gotten worse over the last 3 months! Any suggestion what i can do? without admitting her to a hospital. She is very severe abnormal and inconsistent behavior at school and home. What affects could happen if i took her off everything for a good week just to see how she could act?! It cant get much worse! Any comment can help!

Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 
Behavior therapist is needed for the kid. Arrange for a behavior therapist and he will manage the kid in a few sessions. No need to hospitalize the kid.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.

Have a wonderful time ahead.
