CLONIDIME 100 

Clonidine Hydrochloride (100 mcg)

CLONIDIME 100, containing Clonidine Hydrochloride (100 mcg), is a medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain other medical conditions. Clonidine is an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that works by stimulating receptors in the brain, leading to a decrease in blood pressure and heart rate.

Composition and Mechanism of Action

Clonidine Hydrochloride (100 mcg)

Clonidine Hydrochloride is the active ingredient in CLONIDIME 100. It works by stimulating alpha-2 adrenergic receptors in the central nervous system, which inhibits the release of norepinephrine. This inhibition leads to a decrease in sympathetic outflow from the central nervous system, resulting in a reduction of peripheral vascular resistance, heart rate, and blood pressure.

Uses and Indications

Hypertension

Clonidine is most commonly used to manage high blood pressure. By reducing the signals that cause blood vessels to tighten, Clonidine helps in relaxing blood vessels, thus lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of complications such as stroke and heart attack.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Clonidine is also prescribed off-label for the treatment of ADHD. It helps in improving attention, impulse control, and hyperactivity in patients who do not respond well to stimulant medications.

Pain Management

In some cases, Clonidine is used in pain management, particularly for patients suffering from cancer pain, where it can be used as part of an epidural infusion to provide pain relief.

Withdrawal Symptoms

Clonidine is effective in managing withdrawal symptoms from opioids, alcohol, and nicotine. It helps in reducing symptoms such as anxiety, agitation, muscle aches, and sweating.

Dosage and Administration

Hypertension

For the treatment of hypertension, the typical starting dose is 100 mcg twice daily. Depending on the patient's response, the doses can be adjusted by the healthcare provider. It is essential to take CLONIDIME 100 at the same times each day to maintain an even level of medication in your blood.

ADHD

When used for ADHD, the dosing regimen is often tailored to the individual patient. The medication is typically started at a lower dose and gradually increased based on response and tolerance.

Pain Management and Withdrawal Symptoms

For pain management and withdrawal symptoms, the dosage and administration will be determined by a healthcare provider based on the specific needs of the patient.

Side Effects

While Clonidine is effective in managing various conditions, it can cause side effects. Some common side effects include:

Dry Mouth

Patients often experience dry mouth, which can be managed by increasing fluid intake and using sugar-free candies or gum.

Constipation

Constipation is another common side effect. Increasing dietary fiber and fluid intake can help manage this condition.

Low Blood Pressure

In some cases, Clonidine can cause a significant drop in blood pressure, leading to dizziness or fainting.

Precautions 

Precautions

Before taking CLONIDIME 100, inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions you have, particularly heart disease, kidney disease, or a history of stroke. It is also essential to inform them about all medications you are currently taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.

Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication while taking CLONIDIME 100.
