Duraclon is contraindicated in patients with a history of sensitization or allergic reactions to clonidine. Epidural administration is contraindicated in the presence of an injection site infection, in patients on anticoagulant therapy, and in those with a bleeding diathesis. Administration of Duraclon above the C4 dermatome is contraindicated since there are no adequate safety data to support such use.{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = DURACLON (CLONIDINE HYDROCHLORIDE) INJECTION, SOLUTION [MYLAN INSTITUTIONAL LLC] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=8c126bb8-732a-4949-8754-2f50b5543638 | publisher = | date = | accessdate = 5 February 2014 }} | |||
