Tourette's Syndrome
"Works well intermittently, meaning that sometimes the dosage has to be increased, then decreased, then stopped in favor of a different medicine like Tenex. It definitely helps control motor tics. I&#039;m not so sure it decreases phonic tics. My own phonic tics aren&#039;t so severe as they were in my early teens (I&#039;m 21 now). I&#039;ve been taking this medicine for 7 years now, and if it&#039;s discontinued for a while and then started again, it has good results. I have never found any medicine that completely removed all symptoms of Tourette, but this, Tenex, Quetiapine, Risperdal, and Haldol have all worked well for me personally in different ways. Clonidine stops tics for a while, and that&#039;s better than nothing especially for someone in agony like me."
