My kids all came to me on ridiculous amounts of meds which I had them weened off of with the supervision of a psychiatrist. Without a stable environment, they people involved have know choice but to treat the syptoms the best they can. Also, RAD can mimic ADHD and hypervigilence can mimic hyperactivity. Once placed with you (or research now) find a good therapist familiar with adoption issues and have your child properly assessed. You may want to chek out
www.radzebra.org. I personally, am very anti meds for kids, so you may want to get some opinions from another point of view. Hope this helps.
