When will the tics stop?

[Brenda]

Stephanie had to stop concerta because of tics.I didn't give her any today and she is still ticcing bad.I'm watching her play her playstation and she is jerking her head and neck real bad.When will it stop?It is so hard to watch.She never had tics before concerta.Her doc is starting her on Strattera tomorrow but I'm thinking maybe I should wait for the tics to stop and start strattera on the weekend.

Brenda,
It's not the same medication, but I recently had to take my ds off of Wellbutrin because of tics similar to your dd's. It took a week for the tics to stop. Hugs and good luck to you, I know how hard it is to see your child go through this.
