==Patient Counseling Information==
 
 
Patients should be cautioned against interruption of CATAPRES tablets therapy without their physician's advice.
 
Since patients may experience a possible sedative effect, [[dizziness]], or accommodation disorder with use of clonidine, caution patients about engaging in activities such as driving a vehicle or operating appliances or machinery. Also, inform patients that this sedative effect may be increased by concomitant use of alcohol, [[barbiturates]], or other sedating drugs.
 
Patients who wear contact lenses should be cautioned that treatment with CATAPRES tablets may cause dryness of eyes.
