Most definitely! I'm currently am being weaned down from methadone. I was at 128mgs and I'm not on 92mgs. Still have a long way to go! I wanted to do it "slowly" for about a year. My psychiatrist is giving me only 6months to come off. I would much rather be on my psych meds than the methaone!

My PCP started me on Clonidine a few months ago. First I was taking .1mg twice a day then on top of the two he prescrbed my .2mgs a night. If you were ever in rehab the nurses usually give you a a Clonidine Patch(Catapress). When you are withdrawaling from a certain drug like Methadone or even a Benzo. The Clonodine does seem to help your blood pressure, severe anxiety, relaxation and sleep. The FDA approved therapeutic effect taking Clonidine is for blood pressure. (Clonidine is used "off label" for MANY other things like restless leg syndrome, severe cancer pain from radiation, and even ADHD or ADD) Now depending on where you are detoxing from, will definitely make a difference in the severity and lenght of your detox. If you are at home, you have the opportunity to get other medications like Ativan.(Ativan seems to be the one the medical field uses the most.) Thankfully, I was prescribed a lot of medications throughout this hell!

Klonopin 1mg 4 times a day for anxiety. Promethazine or Phenergan that really helps with some of my nausea 25mgs every 2-6hrs. Zanaflex 4mgs one every 4hrs to relax my tense muscles and headaches, Seroquel which I was prescribed for a mood disorder is used off label for anxiety and insomnia. I take Remeron for sleep/depression and Celexa for a particular phobia. I take Imitrex 100mgs as directed for migraine. I take a med with three ingredients for migraine/tension headaches. I was on Midrin for my headaches up until, apparently, they didn't have all of the ingredients/raw materials to make Midrin. Now they put me on a drug called "Prodrin." Prodrin is also made up of 3 ingredients, but instead of the sedative combo(Chloral Hydrate and something else) I get caffeine instead! Hell, caffeine causes a lot of my headaches. It's not from withdrawing from it, because I rarely consume it.

Finally,eat healthy foods in moderation. Drink LOTS of fluids preferably without caffeine or alcohol(natural Laxis) acting like I've already come off methadone because of all of the advice I've made. Toxins from years of drug use like to retire in your fat tissue. Methadone is especially prone to do that. For an example, you consumed a methadone dose of 60mgs. When you come up the next day, you dose again at 60mgs. Now, from a legitimate source with a doctorites degree and specializes in drugs and the body, there is robably 10mgs from yesterday. I'm probably not saying it right. Anyway, take care to all and beat this demon for good!!

What is Clonidine used to treat?

Clonidine original purpose was as a antihypertensive. Now a days it has other indications in which it can be used for.


What is clonidine and what are its effects on the body?

Clonidine is used as a blood pressure medication. It lowers blood pressure but causes drowsiness. According to Drugs.Com, although not approved by the FDA for these purposes, Clonidine has also been used to relieve alcohol withdrawal, as an aid in methadone and opiate detoxification, as an aid in quitting smoking, to treat diabetic diarrhea, to treat Tourette's Syndrome. Clonidine has also been used to reduce menopausal flushing, to treat postherpetic neuralgia, to treat ulcerative colitis, and to diagnose pheochromocytoma.


Is suboxone a good thing to use temporary to relieve withdrawal symptoms from opiates such as vicodin and percocet?

Yes, Suboxone (buprenorphine) has been successfully used as a detoxification protocol to wean patients from opiate usage while minimizing withdrawal symptoms. Its molecules have a similar affinity for the same receptors as opiates but cause a less strong addictive potential, thus blocking the opiates and down-regulating the receptors for withdrawal. It may be used alone, or in combination with benzodiazepines (as Ativan, Xanax) or clonidine.


How can you go through heroin withdrawal without the use of Suboxone and methadone but maybe the use of Klonopin or Xanax?

Klonopin and Xanax are not opiates, so, they will do nothing to alleviate the symptoms of heroin withdrawal. Only another opiate can alleviate the symptoms of heroin withdrawal.

Clonidine can get you high?

No it can't get you high, its used to treat high blood pressure and can be used for opiate withdrawal. I was in a detox center for 5 days because I was addicted to oxycodone and they gave me clonidine for my withdrawals but taking more than a few clonidine at one time is very bad, basically you'll blackout and might not wake up so don't take more than 3 depending on the mg, id only take 3you if they are are .1mg


Are there any medications that can reduce the therapeutic effects of Ativan?

Yes, clonidine has been used to reduce symptoms of withdrawal and physical dependence from chronic benzodiazepine use as with Ativan or Xanax.


What drug is available to help withdrawal symptoms of suboxone?

Gabapentin 400 and clonidine and ibuprofen 800 and Hydrochloride 25 And Seroquel
