[QUOTE="DDD, post: 398655, member: 35"] I'm no expert but I know that Guanfacine has to be removed very slowly. A Pediatrician told my daughter to remove it from difficult child's schedule because she "wasn't really familiar with it". He ended up in the hospital with high blood pressure problems. So...make sure you are dealing with an expert and make sure no medication is taken away cold turkey without assurance that there can be no side effects. I wish you luck. It is hard trying to medicate...especially when you aren't "into" the concept. on the other hand, it can make life safe and liveable for many of our kids. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
