    Dosage

    Adults: Initially 2 tablets twice daily. If after two weeks there has been no remission, increase to 3 tablets twice daily.
    The duration of treatment depends upon the severity of the condition.
    If symptoms continue to occur the patient should be informed that it may take 2-4 weeks until Clonnirit is fully effective.
    Elderly: No specific information on the use of this product in the elderly is available. Clinical trials have included patients over 65 years and no adverse reactions specific to this age group have been reported.
    Paediatric Population: There is insufficient evidence for the application of clonidine in children and adolescents younger than 18 years. Therefore the use of clonidine is not recommended in paediatric subjects under 18 years.
    Patients with renal impairment: Clonnirit should be used with caution in patients with renal insufficiency. Careful monitoring of blood pressure is required.
