How Long Does Clonidine Stay In Your System

Updated

I need to know how long clonidine stays in your urine? I am on a methadone clinic and they just started taking levels of clonidine in our urine, if you are not prescribed, you get immediate discharge, no detox. Please help.

I couldn't locate a definitive source for this answer, however a few references noted that Clonidine stays in your system for roughly 2-3 days for a urine test. I would personally suggest giving yourself about close to a week though if you've been using it for a while; depending on your metabolism, diet, weight, etc.

Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables while staying hydrated throughout the day will significantly help your body detox quicker (from both clonidine and methadone). Besides getting plenty of rest each night I'd also recommend getting at least an hour each day of exercise in to help sweat out any toxins and get your lymphatic system flowing (which will significantly aid in detoxification as well).

I hope this helps!

Can anyone answer? I have the same question as the above poster - how long until your body is back to 'normal' after taking clonidine. In my case, I've been taking it for 3 months 0.1 mg/day broken up into two doses (0.005mg every 12 hours).

I was addicted to 8 mg klonipin for 10 years. Almost died in mobile al when no one would prescribe it. Dr. Agreed to help and in 3 weeks almost off klonipin from using clonidine patch. No seizures, paralysis it is like a miracle after what I went through. Takes a little adjusting and learning what normalcy is. Stick with such dr. Usually flight surgeons. Also, get one who says he will not abandon you. Patch has to be tweaked a bit. Thank God I never thought I would be off klonipin due to combat head injuries, ptsd and more mostly fear. Now I can see it is almost over - especially what was called Functional Neurological Deficit is gone.

Hey Hun I am on the methadone clinic also and I a definite not prescribed to them either but I take them every night and they have never said anything about being kicked off so idk what clinic you are on but.. I'm from Lynn and I go to habit Opco and they let you have marijuana. I have failed for coke every time and they don't say anything till the 10th fail, then you get one more chance and you can take kpins. So you must be on some crazy clinic. If you live near by I can help you out.

Wow!! That's about the most relaxed clinic I've ever heard of. My clinic doesn't not allow any benzos what so ever unless you're having surgery and then only when it's a last route. Definitely not 10 coke dirty, or marijuana, absolutely no alcohol, and do breathalyzers every day, no clonidine, phenergan, or Gabapentin, and they test for those except clonidine it's the only thing we don't get tested for, so I'm assuming either they can't test for it in the urine, or it's super expensive and insurance will not pay for it. So I guess your blessed in a way for the clinic you're at. I need the strict rules though but that's just me.

I also belong to habit opco clinic. They definately accept marijuana, the only downfall is that you cannot get take home doses of methadone. I tested positive for coca in for 2 years and finally they told me I would get kicked off if I did not stop. So I did and now I have 6 take home doses!

Wow, 15 MG of Clonidine four times a day. That's a lot of Clonidine. I was on 0.3 MG three times a day. Spent four days in the hospital because Dr. reduced me too fast. Four days of .015 (half the dose i was taking). Started having heart palpitations and shortness of breath. That's what put me in the hospital. So all in all, eight days to get it out of my system. Terrible tremors followed so now I have that to deal with. God bless all who are trying to rid themselves of this terrible drug.

If I live to get off this it will be a miracle. Don't try this. I can't take any of those generic drugs. Yes it's cheap in price, but you get what you pay for. It is garbage in those pills, cheap chemicals. So sad that they will sell anything for a dollar. Until we all get together and protest these drugs we will never get our health back. The FDA could care less about the safety of a drug. The doctors don't care, it's only a job. They do what they read and I don't think some of them can read. They can only write subscriptions. The clonidine is the worst, if you take it stay on it until you die. I have not had any sleep for two nights and I am not sleepy. My blood pressure is 205/111 and hasn't been under 180/90s since sunday night. Here it is wednesday. Go to the hospital and camp outside, you wont get in. They tell you the ER is for critical ill patients. Wish you luck if you're on clonidine.

I have been taking clonidine for so many years I really don't know over ten years!!!! When I feel like my heart is gonna beat out of my chest I take one sometimes that just don't feel like enough! Obviously when I don't have many left I try to space it out but I'm stupid when I first get my script I take more than I'm supposed to that's the drug addict in me . Regret it so much days down the road! Idk why I do it but I've done it with everything I've been on it sucks but I still do it ! How do I over come the urge ??!!

Get saved by JESUS CHRIST, WHO DIED FOR US ON THE,CROSS SO THAT WE COULD COME OF OUT OF THE devils dark kingdom, into HIS KINGDOM OF LIGHT. drugs are a tool of the devil to bring you down to the ground so you can,die and go to hell, instead of Heaven. Please, Try JESUS FOR YOUR SOUL'S SAKE!!!!! He is the Only True, and Living GOD. Get Your Soul Saved, and experience ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN.
