Increased his libido so much it was TERRIBLE. We discontinued it in a week after we figured out what was causing the change in him.

It has given my son's life back. This is a miracle drug. My son's appetite has returned. He is no longer in pain and vomiting all the time. The side effects are minimal. At first the drug made him a bit confused, but that went away after a month or so. He takes 15 mg in the a.m. and 15 mg in the p.m. at the same time every day which is very important.

He is in year 7 and still functions well.
