In the article that I linked in this thread:

http://www.addforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=387008

It mentions about combining Methylphenidate and Clonodine therapy. However, they fail to referance Dexmethylphenidate in substitution of methylphenidate. Anybody taking Focalin and clonodine together? If so how does it work for you? (Please mention dose and times of your doses for reference): I want to print this thread to bring to the doctor in 2 weeks...

How do I use the Focalin XR Coupon that I'm able to print from the web? I know I have to bring it to the doctor, but what next after that. I know the bring it to the pharmacy w/ script step too. But the in-betweens. What happens there? (here goes my overthinking again C~F... lolz...)

hi,
these were the 2 meds I was just given a perscription for. I was given Focalin XR 10 mg twice a day and Clonidine .1 at bedtime if I couldn't sleep.
However, my doc said that if I take the Clonodine, it will make the Focalin stop working. Like it cancels it out or something.
However, I have not yet needed to try the Clonodine because by bedtime the Focalin has worn off so I dont have any actual experience.
take care
