| 1 | hypertension | would wake up at night and couldn't get back to sleep. Woke up at 2:30 for several days but the last straw was when I awakened at 11:30! Also, blood pressure was elevated a couple of hours prior to the next dose. | F | 56 | 14 days .1mg 2X D | 10/14/2014 | 5 | Hypertention, Heart failure | Frequent headache. Annoying dry mouth. But this stuff has saved my life! Or my brain. As a rule, can knock bp down from 220/110 in half an hour, then further via subsequent tablets. | Try not to take it near snacks or meals as it makes me terribly sleeping, have wondered if it affects blood sugar. | F | 73 | 1 years .02 mg 3X D | 8/7/2014 | 5 | High Blood pressure | Have to get up slow. Is not long acting so have to take several doses | I consider this a wonder drug. Have had terrible reactions to about 8 other B.P. drugs. Conidine is a old drug that has been well researched. No constipation, swelling, etc. I am scared to death of all the new drugs that cause things like headaches, neuropathy, numbness in limbs, leg and hand cramps. | F | 68 | 15 years .03mg 3X D | 5/6/2013 | 3 | Hypertension | I experienced bad headaches on this medication. | This is the only medication I can tolerate without multiple side effects. After taking other medications without any success, I began taking Clonidine again. I cannot take it twice a day for more than a few days or the headache returns. Basically, I'm taking enough to keep my BP under control, but not enough to get headaches | F | 49 | 0.1 ,mg 2X D | 9/11/2011 | 3 | Insomnia | Irregular heart beat, Purple skin under toenails, mood problems | M | 15 | 2 months .01 1X D | 7/19/2011 | 1 | blood pressure | Caused blood pressure to fall too low. 74/48, pulse 42. Almost passed out. Not for me. | M | 65 | 1 days 1mg 2X D | 4/1/2011 |
