Hi ladies.

I was given Menograin for anxiety. I have all the other symptoms of peri under control but I still straggle with anxiety. I do take vit B6 150mg, B12 with folic acid, magnesium, iron and black cohosh but only for a 2 weeks now. I know it is not long enough but I just needed something to help me in the meantime. The pharmacist gave me Menograin, the main ingredient is clonidine hydrochloride. I did google it but I think it is a bit suspect. 

Maybe somebody knows a bit more about it.

Thanks

Nonnie

    I have only heard of forms of hydrochloride prescribed for vertigo. I do struggle with anxiety though and the doctor was happy to prescribe something. Also CBT is very helpful.

    Hi Jay, I have only been using it for 9 days. So far I don't have any of the side effects you mentioned. I think it will be good for my blood pressure because it is high.
