For me, the clonodine made me really tired. I could only take it at nighe or when i was going to sleep. It will make you weak and tired, but it will help with chills and anxiety....its a good help to w.d.....good luck

I'm taking xanax... which I think is similiar. About .25 every 4-6 when I start to crave and one .5 at night as usual to treat the sleeping disorder I've had for the past. It's making me a little sleepy but it's saving me from being a raging biatch and gobbling done what's little of my stash.
PS. I just made it another 24 hours :)
