Hello,
* The said hallucinations after taking clonidine is due to postural hypotension and other effects over the Central nervous system as part of effects and side effects of the drug itself.
* Immediately stop further doses of the Clonidine and consult the office of your doc for further guidelines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
