Mark...you've been on that for a LONG time.

Are you taking other medications too? I'm looking around for you, but the
answers are not easily forthcoming.
My nutrient depletion references show that clonidine depletes CoQ-10.
So right now, I'd say you should buy a quality product and strive for 200-300mg a day.

I used this for blood pressure for a couple of months and became insomniac so badly I thought I was going crazy! (I went one period of 72 hrs with no sleep).
I had to stop it or who knows what would have happened to me.

This drug affects dopamine and norepi levels. I think you might be rebounding in that regard.


But tell me what all you are taking. It might help to try some melatonin.
I would not try more than 1mg dose 1 hr before bedtime. If it works for you I think you can assume you are not making your own. And since there is no research on this, we have no where else to look. But your other medications might leave a clue for me.

This one is an example of a good formula at a reasonable price:

Some CoQ-10 is not absorbed well, so the better ones explain how they improve that issue.
And the Japanese form is the most active.
