Occasionally some types of after surgery discomfort from mild procedures, on top of what nenene already stated.

I have also heard some people have been given it by their docs to help with withdrawal from other meds, but this is a total off label use, so I don't know much about it.

My son uses it for his Tourettes. It helps with his tics, but makes him very tired.

Withdrawal off klonopin which can be worse than opiates. I was in combat 25 years special unit. On and off klonopin and ativan 25 years. This last wd almost killed me. Doc started replacement with slow wd and clonidine. I have complex back and neck injuries. Also relived by clonidine taking place of klonopin. Egyptian dr. Said klonipin is a killer. Flight surgeon started it. Scared me at first but anything worth paralysis and seizures. Don't give up.
