[quote=Anonymous]DC recently started 1 mg of Guanfacine for ADHD (very negative experiences with 2 different stimulant classes) at night and after taking if for a week, like clockwork, seems to have nightmares which entail babbling in sleep, standing in room, etc after about 1.5 - 2 hours of sleep. DC settles quickly when I go into room (immediately upon hearing crying/babbling) and lie next to her in bed and then sleeps through night. After 2 weeks, we increased the dose to 1 mg at night and 1 mg in morning and the nightmares seem more vivid. It seems others' children have also experienced these nightmares/night terrors. Does changing the full dose to the morning or afternoon seem to help this go away? Have others' children had this experience with clonidine? The Guanfacine does seem to be reducing impulsive behavior issues. Thanks for sharing your experiences. [/quote]
