Clonidine on cycle?

[DennisC1986]

So I'm planning my next cycle out and most likely going to be using something that has a good chance of raising my BP. I can get clonidine where I get my other meds for pct but I've never heard of anyone on here mention using it for this purpose. Is there a reason behind that? I can't be the first one to think of this right

It can be mildly sedating and there is rebound hypertension on stopping. Stick with omega 3 and Hawthorne

Cool. Thanks man

Use carditone, the main ingredient is used to make prescription bp meds and no rebound effect,

 

[DennisC1986]

How about some like Atenolol? I read on here not long ago that if you're taking something that seriously effects your BP, then you should prove taking a medication made for lowering your BP.

If your dead set on a prescription drug then lisinopril would be best

Start Hawthorne 2 weeks prior to your cycle. Unless you have preexisting hypertension, you will be fine.


You might find some lethargy with beta-blockers

You want an ace inhibitor if running prescription bp meds, I always keep lisinopril on hand when on cycle. 20mg of cialis and my bp stays in range. The meds you are talking about leave you feeling drunk all day, very counterproductive and more than likely, way overkill for your cycle.

Beta blockers work by slowing the heart rate so I agree they are not a good choice for our purposes.

They decrease heart rate, but also cardiac output. Unless you need them for angina, don't bother.

Exactly my point.
