Tappering Off Clonidine

I've been on Clonidine for about 6 months .2mg three times a day. I asked my Doctor if he can change my medication. He gave my Hydralize 50mg to help me when off it and told me to reduce the dose of Clonidine from .2mg to .1mg. Is this a good plan?

Hello, Rami! How are you?

For the best results, it is always a good idea to follow your doctor's instructions and advice.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of Hydralazine as possibly including dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, and sedation.

Have you made the change, yet?
