[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 48859, member: 1498"] Here's a thought -- Clonidine is an antihypertensive (lowers blood pressure) and Focalin is an amphetamine-like drug which can raise blood pressure. Discontinuing Clonidine abruptly can cause rebound spiking of blood pressure. Half life is 12-16 hours, I don't know if any spiking can occur as it wears off. You might want to note the time of day the relationship to when he took his medications when take his blood pressure. But the Focalin is the drug most likely to cause high blood pressure. [/QUOTE]
