Cbd Oil And Guanfacine (tenex)

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭
Santa Maria, CA

Has anyone given their child CBD oil and still continued to give the guanfacine (tenex)? My son was prescribed guanfacine to help with his impulsiveness and his aggression. It worked great in the beginning and now not so much. They want to put him on something stronger I am assuming is antipsychotic, which I really do t Sant to do. I am leaning towards trying out cbd oil but not sure if I should keep him on the guanfacine as well.

My son has not been on any prescribe medication for autism relations. Although he could. Lol omg!
This past August I started him on CBD oil at bedtime. I've noticed a difference after increasing the dosage. CBD oil is not cheap, neither is ABA therapy.
But both help so far

I have been using the CBD oil and my grandson has just been prescribed guanfacine. Until I see how he reacts to the guanfacine, I am going to take him off the CBD oil. Please update as to what you end up doing because I may have to revisit the CBD as well

At bed time I give my son 2 dosage.

A year before starting I read stories of autism families using cbd oil. I also did more on the medical use of MJ. Look led into my state and city requirements. Talked to people I personal know who either are receiving MJ treatment or child is.
Then it was a matter of where there find the oil near me.
Hope this helps.
