Picky Eater
Hi clopez60632. I haven't heard of the medication that you mentioned, but I can definitely sympathize with your story! My daughter, who is 10, is an extremely picky eater, and it is also nearly impossible to get her to eat dinner at the table with us. If you're interested, there's some advice about eating habits and autism at http://onlineceucredit.com/edu/social-work-ceus-fl. We're working on her habits, but it's a gradual, slow process.
Hi I'm new to this as well. I posted about my son lol anyways I've took the med and I WOULD NOT give it to my child or anyone else. I had bad trips is what the dr called it. My son is the same way as your child. I started buying the flavored shakes for him that's in the pharmacy He does great with them and the dr told us it has everything he needs in it. I've also gave my son v~8 juice and he drinks a glass a day of it. I hope it helps.

I don't have any personal experience with the medication, but as a mom of two girls that have fluctuated from the most open and amazing eaters to the most amazing picky eaters, it may partially be just an average stage. I would suggest seeing if he would like shakes, you can add milk, protien powder, nut butter, fruit, etc. (my girls love it). Also try to sneak things in to foods he likes, pureed fruit into his yogurt, make your own granola bars and add chopped fruit, if you likes the shakes, try adding spinach and beets in small amounts, it isn't sneaky-it is extremely smart!
Hope this might help!
