The Pharmacology of Clonidine and Related Products

  • Chapter
Antihypertensive Agents

Abstract

Clonidine, 2-(2, 6-dichlorophenylamino)-2-imidazoline, referred to as St 155, Catapresan, Catapres or Catapressan, was the first antihypertensive agent known to act on the central nervous system. Its therapeutic value as an agent for controlling high blood pressure has been well established in recent years and its clinical use is growing.
