Duraclon

Duraclon (clonidine hydrochloride) is a medication used primarily to manage severe pain, especially when other treatments haven't worked. It's administered through a small, specialized pump directly into the spinal fluid, which helps reduce pain signals. By doing so, it can lessen the amount of pain medication needed, minimizing side effects. Duraclon works by calming nerve activity in the nervous system, providing targeted pain relief. It is typically used for patients with chronic, intense pain, such as cancer pain, and is managed carefully by healthcare professionals.
