Anyone out there on Guanfacine?

Are you taking the guanfacine in the morning or at night and is it XR or ER (extended release)? I ask because I started it last month and recovered a LOT of my brain function, but it is causing insomnia halfway through the night, which of course covid does too, but I'm thinking there may be better ways for me to take it. As far as medical care dealing with that, they are not available unless I am near death. I take the NAC also.

Sorry for the delayed response. I looked up my medication and it just says 2mg tablets, so I don’t think it’s extended release. The instructions are to take a bedtime which I assume is because one of the side affects is sleepiness. I have not noticed any change - neither sleepiness nor insomnia.
