We do, but keep in mind that each kid is different.

Liam was on abilify two summers ago; it helped with aggression but he is one of the minority that has weight gain with it, (7 lbs in 10 weeks). Now he is on a low dose of seroquel (after 18 months on risperdal...weight gain again). So far so good. Expect some sleepiness at first but his body should adapt. Don't be surprised if you need to up the dose after a bit. GL
