    Clonidine nearly saved my life and my sanity as I was coming off of 30 years of pain medications and benzodiazepines!
    I’ve been on it for 11 months and it’s been a game changer for me, with absolutely no side effects except a dry mouth once in a while. It’s slowed my pounding heartbeat, decreased my blood pressure which was elevated due to withdrawals, my anxiety that came with all the symptoms of withdrawal, and until my body goes back to normal, which usually takes about a year or so the doctor said after being on medication‘s that long, I’ll stay on it until my cardiologists directs me otherwise. So thank God it worked well for me, I hope it does the same for others!

      I don’t know about opiate withdrawal, but it helped me get off of Kratom.

    If your a diabetic you should not take clonidine. Or only take a small dose.
