DD is on Intuniv for ADHD and it has worked well, but I am starting to notice some symptoms returning; hyperactivity, 'nervous energy', impulse control, ect. She is currently on the lowest dose and I don't want to increase it because she is doing well in school and she got very sleepy the first few weeks after starting the Intuniv.
I have been reading about magnesium supplements and Epsom salt baths to help with hyperactivity. The baths seem like an easy thing to try, but I have a few questions. DD likes to 'swim' in the tub. Is it safe to get in her eyes? What about washing her hair? I rinse her hair by having her lay back in the tub, she doesn't like water poured over her head.. Would the Epsom salt be ok for her hair? Also, how much, how long, how often? Anyone try it? Does it work? Would a magnesium supplement be better than the bathes? If so, any recs for that? TIA!
