[QUOTE="buddy, post: 524783, member: 12886"] My son has been on clonidine for many years, even before I adopted him he was on it when very small... it works wonders for him. Every person is different. It is a commonly used blood pressure medication that has a calming effect for some people/kids. So, just know he might get that light headed feeling if he stands up too fast, and of course just like any medication watch for anything negative but for us, I am just sharing it has been a wonderful medication. You can only do what you can do... keep notes, keep track and let the dr know if you have concerns. Once you find a medication that works, if needed, then that is great. I will say one thing I always do is just one change at a time so I know what may be influencing things. So If you are going to change his diet now, maybe wait till the weekend to start. Just to let this medication change be the one and only thing for a little bit. Just a suggestion. [/QUOTE]
