[QUOTE="justour2boys, post: 615179, member: 6235"] I'll tell you how we started using Intuniv and you might do the reverse... but talk to your doctor. We started with the generic twice-a-day Guanfacine. First was 1/2 of 1 mg in AM for 5 days then 1/2 of 1 mg in AM and again in PM for 5 days. Then 1/2 of 1 mg in AM and 1 mg in PM for 5 days. Then 1 mg in AM and 1 mg in PM. I had to check his blood pressure each day and I emailed the results to the doctor before I upped the dose. After a 2 months we switched to Intuniv 2mg for the convenience of once a day dosing. The generic Guanfacine is a small tablet and can be split, just be careful... it is a very small tablet so I used a pill splitter. [/QUOTE]
