opiate withdrawal
"I got this clonidine for opiate withdrawal until I could get on buperenorphine. Although I didn't suffer the severe side effects that come with opiate withdrawal, I didn't feel upbeat either.  I felt very dehydrated, exhausted, hard to stand up, dizzy, bad tastes in mouth (garlic), depressed...all the things you would expect from a lower blood pressure type med.  I personally wish I would have went another route on this one. Won't take it again.  Not good for me. I need real opiates/opiod meds for taper"
