clonidine not working- maybe bad day?

[Mgirl77]

hi all -- on day 9 of no methadone... i feel like the im getting tolerence to the Clonidine was prescribed. supposed to help with detox sweats, anxiety, shakes, etc. & REALLY it has, but today it seems like the regular dose (3 x day) isn't working. i don't wanna f/u my blood pressure or anything so still taking reg dose but just *****. any suggestions? i heard of this other drug Gabapentin (kaboy told me about), anybody have experience with it?  anyways, dunno maybe just a bad day, my man was with me all wkend thru mon, & now just here by myself so maybe just no distraction. lemme know if anybody knows about this.

I have taken both, and they helped me a lot. Could just be a rough day. Don't adjust the dose without talking to your doctor first.  Congrats on 9 days! ;-)
