A friend of mine recently took his child in for a simple procedure, removing a splinter from her foot. She was developing cellulitis. When they did the procedure they gave her codeine and it made her hyperactive, she was bouncing off the walls until 1 in the morning, about 7 hours after the drug was given. Could this be a sign that she has ADHD? She is only 6, but does show some other signs that go along with ADHD. Also, how could we bring this up to him? He is actually a grandfather who has custody of her and her twin sister and I don't want to sound like I am prying into their lives, they have had it rough from the beginning.
