Have Hot Flashes, Sleeplessness, Upset Stomach. Menopausal. On Clonidine. Will I Be Okay?
I have been taking Clonidine 0.1 MG for 5 months, to help with my menopose hot flashes that I have had for 12 years.The other night I went to bed couldn t sleep. With in an hour I had the worst upset stomic. I got up went to the bathroom because I was going to get sick. This lasted for 2 hrs. Sat in a chair for the night . The next day I was tired but felt good. That night the same thing happened, and fine the next day. So the third night I didn t take the clonidine and I was fine all night . Can I stop taking the Clonidine all together?

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Clonidine is a anti hypertensive drug. Also given in anxiety disorder.
It has nothing to do with hot flushes.
I suggest you to consult a Gynecologist and start HRT for menopausal symptoms.
You will feel a lot of difference
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
