We assessed the effects of clonidine on blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) in multiple system atrophy (MSA), where the autonomic nervous system lesion site is preganglionic, and in pure autonomic failure (PAF), where it is postganglionic. In normal subjects, intravenous infusion of the selectiv
