My Granddaughter Is 9 Years Old And Has Taken Focalin

My granddaughter is 9 years old and has taken Focalin for 8 months. Since she has taken this medication, she has very little appetite and hasn't gained any weight during this treatment. Her pediatrician is suggesting she see a psychiatrist. Is this a typical referral? The focalin is very effective for the ADHD and my granddaughter has improved immensely with this medication. Your thoughts?
