[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guanfacine absolutely blew up our skinny, active DC around age 10. He began eating like crazy and was continuously exhausted and his self esteem plummeted. He was hugely fat. We now use Latuda (lowest dose) and chlonidine .2mgs twice a day and he went back to his normal weight within a few months. This is in addition to his methylphendiate. This trio of meds took us about five years to find and it works like a charm. DX is adhd + some dysregulation issues. GL[/quote] Thanks! The weird thing is she also began eating like crazy on other meds but has been eating much less on Guanfacine! So hard to figure all of this out.[/quote]
