For parents
To help take care of your child’s emotional health:2
- Be available for your children
- Let your kids know you’re listening
- Respond in a way your children will hear
Things change—and the medicine a child takes may need to change, too
To help manage mood, anger, attention, or sleep problems, some children take psychotropic medicine, which often is used to treat:
- Anxiety
- Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
- Depression
Over time, your child may:
- No longer need to take the medicine or
- Need to take a different dosage of the medicine
During a well visit, a doctor will ask:
- About any medicine that a child takes
- Why the child takes the medicine
- If the child responds well or not to the medicine
You and your child’s doctor will decide together when your child should start or stop taking a specific medicine. This is called deprescribing.
To help make sure your child takes the right medicine at the right time:
- Talk to your child’s doctor
- Keep track of your child’s medicine
- Make sure your child takes medicine as prescribed
