lele Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Update my son's TS his TS flared up after waning for 2 weeks. He starts a very bad vocal tis as throat clearing, non stop, very loudly throat clearing , not the soft one as before. I noticed he has a bag of pop corn and some home made butter cookie which was not in his regular diet before, nothing else can ring a bell on me. If any one has any idea to reduce this bad vocal tics please let me know. It is so niosy in the class, I can't imagine how can he face this in school.

L-carnitine is the last thing I want to try on him, could you please tell me what brand and what dosage I can give it to my 8 years old, 66 lbs boy? Thanks a gain.

Chemar Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 lele we used the NOW brand of L-carnitine at 500 mg daily but my son was 12yo and adult weight then usually it is recommended to give half the adult dose of any supplement to a child under 12 and over 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
