Catapres (clonidine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: I used it to come off of oxycodone and it helped some. My doctor continued it as an adjunct to my ADHD medicines and it was a nice mellow touch. Discontinued after a year; I take enough medicines as it is.

Catapres (clonidine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: MY SON HAS BEEN ON THIS FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS, AS WELL AS VYVANSE. IT REALLY CALMS HIM DOWN SO HE CAN GO TO BED AND GET A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP! HE USED TO HAVE NIGHTMARES, BUT SINCE HES BEEN ON THIS MEDICATION, HE HASN'T HAD ONE! AGAIN I THANK THE MAKERS OF THESE WONDER DRUGS AND I KNOW MY SON THANKS YOU ALL AS WELL!

Catapres (clonidine) for Migraine Prevention: Clonidine will prevent a migraine for me, if I take it as soon as the headache is starting, and sometimes even helps after it's under way. Of course, the drug does cause wooziness, so I have to be careful about standing up or making other sudden moves. It's very effective, and cheap. Give it a 10.

Catapres (clonidine) for Opiate Withdrawal: Clonidine, or catapres, is a Godsend for opiate withdrawal. It takes a lot of the worst parts out of it. Best done under supervision of a compassionate doctor.

Catapres (clonidine) for Opiate Withdrawal: I take clonidine to lower the sweaty feeling that comes with taking methadone and it works well for me. Only side effect is I get dizzy sometimes when I stand up too fast.

Catapres (clonidine) for Opiate Withdrawal: IT SEEMS TO BE HELPING SO FAR, WITHOUT HAVING TO GO THROUGH DETOX.

Catapres (clonidine) for Opiate Withdrawal: This made me more "at ease" in my opiate detox without the narcotic effect.
