Dd stared Augmentin at the higher Saving Sammy dose 2 weeks 3 days ago. (for one week before that shew as on half the dose) I believe it has been about 7 days since I've seen her tic. It was almost always at night when she was having a difficult time. She still has a hard night sometimes (last night was one...first day of her period) but there was no tic.

 

Hopeful.

Hello Angela,

 

Is your DD still on Advil? so do you think all the improvement should owe to Augmentin XR? Or Advil helps some? What dose of Advil do you use? times/day?

 

Thanks,

Jack

Dd's symptoms have always(3 years) been primarily OCD until this fall. She had a terrible exacerbation and that was when she developed two tics. One facial and one vocal. They usually only showed up at night when she was really stressed and having difficulty with the OCD, but sometimes during the day too if she was having a hard time. She's mostly a repeater. Repeats steps, doorways, words, etc. and asks a LOT of reassurance questions.

 

She is still on Advil. The advil instantly brought her relief from a good chunk of the ocd. It made it managable. She doesn't' rage or cry much while on Advil, except occasionally, like the night before last when it was the first day of her period and she was having trouble going to sleep...and had a friend over...and felt like an idiot. Before the Advil she raged and cried daily up to 5 hours a day.

 

When we started the Advil it did not affect her tics. She still had the tics, so the only thing I can figure is that the Augmentin xr has started to work. Honestly, It's hard to tell but that was my reasoning.

 

Other changes I have noticed in the last week or so but have yet to give credit to the Augmentin just yet are the fact that she's less tactile defensive. I've kissed her a few times and she did not begin her normal routine of hugging and being unable to stop...and frustrated...asking me to not do that. Other subtle changes too.
