Families wishing to use natural therapies first, and medications if indeed warranted. Individuals who are very sensitive to psychotropic medications. Families that are reluctant to give psychotropic medications due to concern regarding adverse effects. Individuals who have failed trials with psychotropic medications due to lack of effect or significant adverse effects.
