kimspr3,
I was not given clonidine that I know of. At least not to take on my own or any kind of pain pump. If I was given it in the hospital during or surrounding my surgery, then I don't know as I would not have been aware of it. Did you have surgery already? I would definitely call your allergist or the doctor that prescribed it for you in order to ask about side effects. I believe clonidine is given to adults for blood pressure/hypertension and sometimes for pain. In kids it is for hyperactivity sometimes as well but not so much in adults I don't think. I know about it because of blood pressure as my father had hypertension. It can make you tired and a bit dizzy at first but sometimes that goes away after a while. What are your side effects? Please don't be shy about letting your doctor know and getting your questions answered. But just wondering if you had your surgery yet?

I have been given Clonidine 0.1MG to take when my blood pressure spikes. I hate hate hate this med. My IQ drops to the moron level. No short term memory- makes it hard to cook a basic meal or make a decision. I didn't know it helped with pain, but I wasn't in pain when I needed it. Surely there must be better choices for pain meds. Now my cardiologist has prescribed nitroglycerin if I spike because I hate Clonidine so much.

The Clondine has been added to my pain pump because of my spine disease chichis very painful. It's a high dose. Trying to get in-touch all day with my Allergist. Recordings. For me, side effects are tongue swollen, not to bad, gums also, effecting my legs, breathing, have an inhaler for that, lower spine pain, Waiting for my P.M. Dr. to call again. Hard to walk, feels like I'm pushing agains water. Waiting for return calls.
