Hello, Shell! How is your son?

No, this medication can work very fast, so yes, it could be due to it.

The FDA warns that it is a benzodiazepine that carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.

It may not be the right medication for him to take. It would be best to speak to his doctor as he may need to try something else.
