It is sometimes sold under brand names like Catapres, Kapvay, Clophelin and Nexiclon. Clonidine is prescribed for a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/druginfo\/meds\/a682243.html#other-uses\">range of conditions<\/a>, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Hypertension<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2014 otherwise known as high blood pressure; Clonidine\u2019s primary use is as a treatment for hypertensive patients.<\/li><li><strong>ADHD<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 clonidine is FDA-approved for use in treating Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in both children and adults.<\/li><li><strong>Tourette\u2019s Syndrome<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 sometimes used to treat the tic symptoms of this neurological disorder.<\/li><li><strong>Anxiety<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 the medication is sometimes prescribed for its anti-anxiety and mild sedative effects.<\/li><li><strong>A<\/strong><strong>lcohol and narcotic withdrawal&nbsp;<\/strong>\u2013 patients experiencing withdrawal may see symptoms minimized with clonidine. In particular, those&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.therecoveryvillage.com\/opiate-addiction\/withdrawal-detox\/\">detoxing from opiates<\/a>&nbsp;may benefit from clonidine.<\/li><li><strong>Quitting smoking<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 similarly, clonidine is sometimes prescribed to help address the symptoms of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/smokefree.gov\/challenges-when-quitting\/withdrawal\/understanding-withdrawal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nicotine withdrawal<\/a>.<\/li><li><strong>Menstrual cramps&nbsp;<\/strong>\u2013 clonidine has demonstrated some effectiveness in treating severe menstrual cramps.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2>Is Clonidine Addictive?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While clonidine is not as addictive as other classes of drugs, users may become dependent on it. Some reports suggest that using clonidine may increase the effect and duration of certain drugs, particularly opiates. As such, those using clonidine with alcohol or drugs may experience more significant dependence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with other medications, using clonidine in a manner or amount outside of what has prescribed by a doctor is a signal of substance abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Clonidine Side-Effects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Consumption of clonidine can have side-effects including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"is-style-columns-3\"><li>Drowsiness<\/li><li>Dizziness<\/li><li>Fatigue<\/li><li>Irritability<\/li><li>Fever or warm flashes<\/li><li>Cold symptoms such as runny nose, cough, sore throat and sneezing<\/li><li>Moodiness<\/li><li>Constipation, diarrhea or other digestive issues<\/li><li>Insomnia or sleep issues<\/li><li>Headache<\/li><li>Dry mouth<\/li><li>Sexual dysfunction<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These side effects can vary if clonidine is taken along with other controlled substances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Withdrawal Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Those experiencing withdrawal from clonidine may experience some adverse effects. LIkelihood and severity of symptoms may depend on recency, length and amount of medication used.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As clonidine is most commonly prescribed for hypertension, a common withdrawal symptom is the understandably a rapid rise in blood pressure. Other reported symptoms include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"is-style-columns-3\"><li>Anxiety or depression<\/li><li>Nervousness or agitation<\/li><li>Dizziness<\/li><li>Headache<\/li><li>Tremors<\/li><li>Insomnia<\/li><li>Lightheadedness<\/li><li>Nausea or vomiting<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Other, rare side effects of withdrawal include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Hypertensive encephalopathy<\/li><li>Cerebrovascular accidents<\/li><li>Death<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional symptoms of withdrawal from clonidine may occur if it is being&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.therecoveryvillage.com\/prescription-drug-addiction\/side-effects\/dangers-poly-use\/\">taken in conjunction with prescription medications<\/a>, alcohol or other narcotics. For example, if clonidine is being consumed with opiates to amplify their effect, withdrawal symptoms may be compounded with those of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.therecoveryvillage.com\/opiate-addiction\/withdrawal-detox\/\">opiate withdrawal<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with any drug, be sure to follow the direction of a medical professional when weaning off a prescription medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How Long Does Withdrawal Last<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.therecoveryvillage.com\/treatment-program\/drug-detox\/detox-timelines\/\">Withdrawal timeframes<\/a>&nbsp;can vary significantly depending on the dosage amount and length of use. Additionally, it is often recommended that users of clonidine gradually taper off use rather than abruptly stop. This is due in large part to the risk of a high blood pressure spike after ending the medication\u2019s use. As with any changes to prescription medication, it is important to follow expert medical direction before ceasing use of clonidine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Next Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are using clonidine alone or with other substances and have questions or need help, please&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.therecoveryvillage.com\/contact\/\">contact us<\/a>.
