We are getting the generic form called guanfacine and

it is white. It's also quite cheap. Barb

We use guanfacine too. He was off, and hyper the first week. But he

is doing well now. We got it at Valgreene.

We also get a generic form, but it is pink. It says on the pill

444.

If anyone can tell me what is written on their white pill, it will

help me find the generic by another manufacturer, I hope.

Barb,

The week took it; He had a worst week ever in school according

to his teacher. But past two weeks, he has been doing much better.

He was able to get Smiley face in class, and when he was getting

upset, he was able to go to teacher before he has a fit. He is more

in control, and interacts better. We had major regression after

Labor Day due to cold, and mostly, change of school and

expectations. This year the kids are a lot different, he was at

receiving end of many things which builds up and he really had had

time deal with it. All his autistic behavior was clear on display

last quarter. He just did not know how to handle things, and he was

also physically not doing well.

We finally got ride of cold over a moth ago. But he was still in the

slump until this past week, I can say, along with his teacher, he is

doing much better, much less undesirable behaviors. When he got in

trouble Wednesday, he was able to bounce back and get a smiley face

next period. If it had happen before, he would stay in his Special

ED teacher's office for a hour before he can function. When he was

really upset a few times later in the week, he went to teacher

instead of get into fight.

We added Tenex about three and half weeks ago, had hard time

control himself the first week. He did not just snap out of his

regression when he started taking it. But he is well on the way now.

So I can only think Tenex helped, because he was not able to get

over with his hurdles for a long time.
