[quote=Anonymous]Clonidine has sedative properties and has way different effects from stimulants such as amphetamines (e.g., Vyvanse). If you decide to take a break from clonidine, you should be really careful to taper your kid off of the medication because it may causes blood pressure changes (drastic unsafe sudden spikes). Regarding changes in personality, it is really a question of semantics. The medication does not "change" a person's personality, but a medicine that is sedating your kid may definitely keep your kid from expressing that personality. For my family, we see so much more of our child's personality when he's on his medication. [/quote]
