ADHD meds and sleep: One of the side effects that are routinely monitored in children taking ADHD medications is problems with sleep. When sleep becomes disrupted, medication doses or types are often changed. It is important that the prescribing physician be made aware of this problem so that it can be addressed appropriately. Some children who have failed trials of various medications are given Clonidine.
