Clonidine Caused My Worst Flare Ever

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Over the past two months I have been getting burning for the first

time. Prior to this I only got redness, broken veins and chemical

sensitivity. My Dr put me on Clonidine to help with the burning but

from day one of starting it my cea worsened. Usually over a day

my redness & burning would come and go, but once on Clonidine it came

but did not go. After 4 days of a continuous burning, redness and a

peeling face I stopped the Clonidine and by the next day my face had

returned to its usual pattern. Has anyone else had this problem?

Should I have perservered in the hope it would settle in time? I

also got headaches and nausea from it.

Regards,

Anne
