deagar Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 We have tried eliminating the foods that my son was moderately sensitive to for about 7 weeks now with no improvements in tics. Since we haven't seen anything yet, is it worth continuing for the whole 3 months? The same goes for supplements. My son has been on a B complex for over a month now with no improvements. We just started mag/cal/zinc & taurine and was wondering how soon we would see any improvements with any of those. I know the recent supplements need to be given more time but I don't want to keep adding pills if after the a given amount of time we aren't seeing any improvement. So if someone has a guideline of some sort and would say if after this much time with no improvements, then it probably isn't helping and we could feel comfortable stopping, that would be helpful. Thanks - Deanna
Chemar Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 Hi deanna the calcium/magnesium/zinc and taurine should be given at least a month, although many people see results sooner than that I have mentioned before that my son has adverse effects when he takes a B Complex, but does well when the B's are given individually....and we dont give any niacin or folic acid beyond what is already in his multivitamin, as those are 2 B's that he doesnt react well to

I will give the cal/mag/zinc a good month. I think I will look back and see if I noticed any increase when I started the B complex. Also, I read on a thread that some people can't tolerate the taurate...does that mean their tics increased or it was a stomach issue or what?
