Guanfacine lowers heart rate and blood pressure, and has also proven effective against ADD. I've personally found it quite useful in combination with stimulants.
A cardioselective beta-blocker, such as atenolol, is another option for reducing heart rate (and blood pressure).
Other than Dexedrine, modafinil, low doses of sulpiride or amisulpride, selegiline or rasagiline, can be useful agents on their own or in addition to Ritalin.
