For example if someone is using Britlofex (Lofexidine) for about a week for their subutex/suboxone withdrawals and they run out of the lofexidine but were on 0.2mgs (3 times a day) then is it possible to carry on to the
clonidine? or do you have to taper the lofexidine first?. I know its been said to taper these blood pressure meds but is it really going to make any difference if u just transfer from 0.2mgs of lofexidine to 0.2mgs clonidine and then taper the clonidine?.......as they both are simmilar meds?
For those who dont know what Lofexidine its a med which is available in the UK used for opiate detox, simmilar to Clonidine but with less side-effects (so iv'e been told).
Thanks.
