tourette's syndrome
"My son is 12 years old. He has had the tics for 8 years. The Neurologist put him on Clonidine 1 tablet a day as needed. He just started taking it 2 days ago. We will see how it goes from here. It breaks my heart to see him going through this. During these times when he has the tics, I try my best to make sure he has No added stress. It does get him sleepy after an hour or two with one pill. And it seems to slow the tics down a bit."
