I have applied twice before and spent the last 3 years learning and developing my skills. I know it is ...

I was prescribed guanfacine ir (tenex) instead of extended release due to my age for adhd. I’m currently on 1 mg taken at night. Is the instant release version still effective for adhd? And does it take several days/weeks for the medication to build up and notice it’s effects since it’s not a stimulant?
