Clonidine for anxiety?

Posted by brynb on August 24, 2012, at 17:24:35

Hi All,

I have an Rx for Clonidine to help with mild hand tremors (from Lithium) and in case I experienced any withdrawal symptoms tapering down Tramadol (I didn't).

I was amazed at how well it worked on my anxiety. Is it similar to a beta blocker in this respect? Beta blockers never did a thing for me. Benzos and Lexapro have been my tried and true anxiolytics. This seems better than Vistaril (and some APs I've tried).

Can it be used as a prn for anxiety? Any risks involved here?

Thanks,
b
