Hi Michelle,
Well both my boys take 20mg (in a pill form), so I'm not sure what dose your son takes.
son was on prozac for awhile. he was happy
From what I remember with my son, I think it takes at least 3 weeks to build up in
Bug (my 7 year old Aspie) is on Prozac and it really helps with her "tics" and some of the OCD things. We don't have a problem with her shoes and socks anymore, she is a bit calmer about tags (at least willing to wait to have them removed rather than cutting them off her animals herself immediately), and her general anxiety level has decreased. She's on 20 mg pill once a day.
I thought to myself "what is this really doing for her. Maybe she just outgrew doing those things" until we were without meds for about three days. (Somehow ran out on a holiday weekend!) And WHooooeeee!
After getting her back on track with the meds, I can really see the difference in the behaviors. Anxiety tics/OCD/sensory stuff especially.
Thanks everyone for your responses!!
