high blood pressure
"DR Recommended patch over Clonidine tablets I was taking.  Waited the three days for any effect.  During the three days I had to resort to my .1mg tablets to control my blood pressure.  On the eve of the third night, my BP hit 160 meaning the patch was useless and I immediately when back to my regiment of .05mg (half tablet) three times a day.  This keeps my BP between 125-135/75-85.  I have an undiagnosed condition where I have surges to 210/110 and have been higher which can last from an hour or so to several days.  The tablets stabilize my BP.  Periochromocytoma has been ruled out. To add insult to injury these patches are very expensive even with RX plan."
