"The sleepiness with clonidine can often be helpful in treating bedtime wakefulness or sleep disturbances in children with ADHD (Wilens et al. 1994; Prince et al. 1996)."

"Guanfacine can also be substituted for clonidine when the child wakes up at 1:00 or 2:00 a.m. after a bedtime dose of clonidine. The longer half-life of guanfacine facilitates a full night of sleep."
