Did the doctor do any kind of attention scale with you on your son first? His day care provider or preschool teacher (if he goes to these type of places) can also be asked to fill out the attention scales - these help to give a better understanding if the child has normal attention for his age or if there is a case of ADHD with or without the hyperactivity. If it is a true case of this, there are lots of choices of medication to choose from if you want to go in that direction. Talk to your doctor about all your choices so you can make the best decision for your son and your family. Good luck!

all children are hyper and strateral is a drug that is addictive and he will have withdraw symptoms when he comes off it ...i just watched my grandson suffer the symptoms when he was removed from the drug.... the net has a wealth of information look the drug up you may be amazed at what your giving him.

get your answers from the doctor - they may have case studies with the drug
