CLONIDINE HYDROCHLORIDE 50MICROGRAMS / 5ML ORAL SOLUTION - patient leaflet, side effects, dosage

1. what clonidine hydrochloride is and what it is used for

Clonidine hydrochloride belongs to a group of medicines called vasodilators. Vasodilators widen the blood vessels and this helps the blood to flow more easily.

Clonidine hydrochloride is used to prevent migraine attacks and similar types of headache. It is also used to prevent hot flushes that may occur in women during the menopause (change of life).

2. what you need to know before you take clonidine hydrochloride
