Brand name: Javadin

Generic name: clonidine hydrochloride

Manufacturer: Azurity Pharmaceuticals

Approval date: October 24, 2025

FDA has approved Javadin (clonidine hydrochloride) oral solution, an immediate-release, ready-to-use oral liquid formulation, for the treatment of hypertension in adult patients to lower blood pressure.

By stimulating alpha-adrenoreceptors in the brain stem, clonidine reduces sympathetic outflow from the CNS and decreases peripheral resistance, renal vascular resistance, heart rate, and blood pressure.

According to a manufacturer press release, Javadin is a berry-flavored, clear, colorless oral solution. Each 5 mL delivers 0.1 mg of clonidine (0.02 mg/mL). Javadin may be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents.
