Suggest Treatment For Tic Disorder In A Child

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...I have an 11 year old son who from an early age 3 to 4 developed small tics , looking back now around the age he developed asthma. He takes Clenil Modulite 50(beclometasone dipropionare) Salmeterol 25 and ventoline each day. Hes now 11 and has them pretty strong he also makes a throat noise , these tics change from time to time get less then stronger . Ive tried hypnotheropy a homeopath yoga and pycologist, calm suckers and rescue sprays . He is always on the go very slight and never seems to relax. His tic are not visable when hes asleep. Hes an average student because of his lack of confidence. Hope you can help, Thank you .
