[QUOTE="Christy, post: 304209, member: 225"] My difficult child has been on clonidine and while it did control ADHD symptoms, we found that the sedating effect made him very irritable and depressed. He has had much more success on tenex which is also a BiPolar (BP) medication. Both with the tenex and when he took clonidine, he takes three very small doses space throughout the day to counteract the tiredness and to keep his blood pressure from dropping too low and making him dizzy. A time release version is a great idea and a psychiatrist did tell me that they are working on a version of tenex that is time released but it is not yet available. [/QUOTE]
