clonidine and Chronic Insomnia

clonidine has been researched along with Chronic Insomnia in 19 studies

Clonidine: An imidazoline sympatholytic agent that stimulates ALPHA-2 ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS and central IMIDAZOLINE RECEPTORS. It is commonly used in the management of HYPERTENSION.
clonidine (amino form) : A clonidine that is 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-amine in which one of the amino hydrogens is replaced by a 2,6-dichlorophenyl group.

"Clonidine was effective in reducing sleep initiation latency and night awakening, to a less degree in improving attention deficits hyperactivity, mood instability and aggressiveness in this cohort of 19 children with ASD."6.73Use of clonidine in children with autism spectrum disorders. ( Gordon, E; Kang, N; Ming, X; Wagner, GC, 2008)

( Gordon, E; Kang, N; Ming, X; Wagner, GC, 2008)
" Clonidine, melatonin, L-theanine, eszopiclone and guanfacine were well tolerated with mild to moderate adverse events; zolpidem was associated with neuropsychiatric adverse effects."2.55Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Drugs for Treating Behavioural Insomnia in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: A Systematic Review with Methodological Quality Assessment. ( Anand, S; Besag, FMC; Chan, EW; Cortese, S; Tong, H; Wong, ICK, 2017)
"Clonidine reduced insomnia; and melatonin also exhibited a positive response, with reduced sleep latency, higher total sleep time, and higher sleep efficiency."2.49To sleep or not to sleep: a systematic review of the literature of pharmacological treatments of insomnia in children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. ( Barrett, JR; Giaroli, G; Tracy, DK, 2013)
"Whether the additional PTSD and functional neurologic deficits were due to a direct effect of the lightning strike on the central nervous system or a secondary response is open to speculation."1.39Central hyperadrenergic state after lightning strike. ( Ahlskog, JE; Craft, JM; Gelfman, R; Kantor, B; Low, PA; Parsaik, AK; Seime, RJ; Sheldon, SH; Singer, W; Staab, JP, 2013)
" Mean administration of clonidine (on an "as-needed" basis) was 5 days (maximum 7 days), whilst the mean daily dosage ranged from 0."1.27[Clonidine for the treatment of heroin withdrawal syndrome]. ( Hermann, P; Presslich, O; Schanda, H, 1983)
"Finally it is suggested that insomnia and the loss of REM sleep may also contribute to the onset of the condition."1.27[Changes in the circadian rhythm of urinary cyclic adenosine monophosphate during the alcoholic withdrawal syndrome and related neurobiological correlations].
