Can you please tell me if guanfacine is available in Canada. I asked the pharmacist and they couldn’t find it on Health Canada’s approved list. My son has ADHD/Tourettes/recently diagnosed autistic and was doing ok on 40mg vyvanse & small dose clonidine at night. His tics have been bad for a while so we tried increasing clonidine and spread it out during the day, but his tics are still bad and he fainted today (first time). A few weeks ago I took him off vyvanse for 8days and increased clonidine (less tics, but his behavior deteriorated after a few days). I am also ADHD & presently recovering from CFS so it’s been hard having the energy to figure all this out. Can we participate in trials of this drug if it’s not available yet? Thx
