Substituting Two Of The 0.1mg Pills For One 0.3mg Pill

My grandchildren both take Clonidine for ADHD. One of them is out of their prescription of the 0.3mg pill. Would it be okay to give him 2 of the 0.1mg (for a total of 0.2mg) pills until his prescription gets refilled?

Hello, Deb! How are you and your grandkids?

You should check with his doctor first, but in theory there shouldn't be anything wrong with doing so… however, you may end up running the other child short on their medication.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, anxiety, headache and hypotension.

Is there anything else I can help with?
