Clonidine to balance high BP?

[OpiateKiller]

I’ve heard clonidine long term is dangerous and not recommended.

Has anyone used it to lower BP from AAS?

I liked it when used in short term BP usage (like 4 months). Also used in rehab to lower my BP while detoxing. Personally I'd opt for it over a beta blocker but there are definitely other options to be used long term like vasodilators. Even once daily cialis does a great job for lowering bp

Wow cialis lowers blood pressure? I never woulda known that. That’s cool, I also have found magnesium and Coq10 will drop my blood pressure about 10-15 points on each side

Yep yep. The discovery of viagra (same class of drug) having use for erectile dysfunction came about when looking for a new blood pressure med. Caused vasodilation throughout the body, thus decreasing BP. It's one of the reasons it's contraindicated to be taken with "nitrates for chest pain" as they mention in the commercials as your BP can drop significantly causing issues. Cialis at 5mg/day dropped my systolic (top number) by around 7-8 and my diastolic (bottom number) by around 5.
Viagra is prescribed off label by one of my vet friends to pets suffering with congestive heart failure and/or pulmonary hypertension.
