Guanfacine (Tenex/Intinuv) is just a prescription you can get for ADHD hyperactivity. It complements stimulants really well but is hard to live with - you feel sedated, have no alcohol tolerance, and ramping off it takes a week or two.

Like nootropics? Popular internet topic but a little goes a long way. Here's what I know:
- Vitamin D 1k-5k IU, fish oil, theanine: These all work great and everyone should try them.
- Magnesium: Too many different supplement formulations to trust one, and I read they give you copper deficiency - just eat spinach and you're good. Actually zinc is better to supplement, especially for men.
- Nootropic stacks like Qualia: Tried some, but pretty sure they're expensive caffeine pills.
- Every other nootropic: Bacopa helps long-term but makes ADHD worse short-term(!). No effect from anything else.
