Default Clonidine Patch
Has anyone tried the clonidine patch for RSD?

Did it help? Are there any major side effects from this medication?

My wife was on this for about 6 months and it did nothing for her. But everyone reacts to medications differently and her doctor at the time had other RSD patients that were benefitting from it.

Clonidine lowers your blood pressure, so you just have to watch out for that. Other than the lower blood pressure, she had no other side effects.
