[QUOTE="justour2boys, post: 514860, member: 6235"] Yes, my youngest difficult child is using Intuniv and my oldest difficult child is using Guanfacine (the generic version) once a day. For us, we started both with the generic (Guanfacine) and slowly worked up to the correct dose for each child. Then we switched to Intuniv for the youngest, but stuck with the generic for the oldest. Since it is also used as a blood pressure medication, we check their blood pressures often. Also, the "biggest" side effect is sleepiness. Which can be a blessing, so I give it to my difficult child in the late afternoon. It also seems to help with rebound. [/QUOTE]
