vocal tic

[stacielynne]

My son Tyler started a clearing throat tic a few days ago........does anyone have any supplement suggestions for him? He has been tic free for about a year. He is currently taking Augmentin, Probiotics and vitamins. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Do you use any motrin/advil with him? When my son's vocal tic developed during h1n1 it subsequently disappeared a few weeks later when we were giving him round the clock motrin for a fever. It came back when we discontinued the motrin even though he was still on really high doses of clindamycin. It finally disappeared about a month later on vacation. You might try to see if keeping him on motrin round the clock for a day or two helps with it.
