Should i take clonidine at night?

Clonidine: We often recommend taking Clonidine at night so that the fatigue commonly caused by it is less during the daytime and the Clonidine can help sleep.

Clonidine: Clonidine is usually taken in a split dose (morning & bedtime). If one dose is higher, take at bedtime. If only one dose is taken recommend it be taken about two hours before sleep if improved sleep is needed. It can be taken with or without food. If you take an extended release Clonidine tablet – swallow it – don't chew, crush or cut it. There is also extended-release oral suspension.
