Abstract
In order to prevent symptoms of drug withdrawal during pregnancy, we treated a woman with clonidine, an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist with central and peripheral actions. We saw a good response of the withdrawal symptoms without any period of severe hypotension or bradycardia. Two healthy babies were subsequently delivered by cesarean section.
