My daughter has been on guanfacine for adhd for a couple years now and has gained a ton of weight. She has an appt on monday and I am going to ask to have her taken off this med because I do not feel like she needs it anymore and the weight gain is really bothering her. Will stopping this medication reverse the weight gain? I feel so bad that she is so young and struggling with this already.
