Can you please explain to me what intuniv is and how it works?

Intuniv: Intuniv is a long-acting form of guanfacine, which is usually used to control high blood pressure. It can help kids with adhd who have tics, sleep problems, and/or aggression. It's not a stimulant, therefore not a controlled substance like many other adhd medications are. It can be added when stimulants aren't working effectively, or by itself depending on symptoms and physician's evaluation.

Intunive: Intuniv (guanfacine) is a once a day medication used to treat Attention Deficit Disorder in children & adolescents but is used off-label for adults. It is not a stimulant but rathe an alpha2A-adrenergic receptor agonist which can be used as an adjunct for people using stimulants or as monotherapy for people who can't tolerate stimulants. It is also an antihypertensive medication.
