Yes...: Assuming that you are taking Clonidine for high blood pressure, there should be no significant problems with continuation of this drug. In fact, most would recommend that you continue Clonidine since stopping it abeuptly might cause significant rise in blood pressure.

Clonidine: Can be helpful in eliminating some symptoms of opioid withdrawal. It is a blood pressure medication however, and should be used under the guidance of a physician. Blood pressure must be followed, and some will find clonidine sedating as well.
