The patient was routinely receiving transdermal clonidine and also received transdermal nitroglycerin paste as needed for control of acute hypertensive episodes. On the recommendation of the home healthcare pharmacists, clonidine was discontinued. Since that time, the patient's blood pressure and the use of emergent antihypertensive treatment have decreased significantly (maximum systolic and diastolic BP by \u223c50 and 25 mm Hg, respectively).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Many of the characteristics of autonomic dysfunction, such as refractory hypertension, can seem selective for the use of clonidine and, because of its reliance on central \u03b1\n                      <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                      -activity for its hypotensive effects, clonidine may induce hypertension in patients with autonomic dysfunction.
