In today’s evolving health care environment, value-based care is reshaping the future of medicine. The push toward value-based care demands innovative, cost-effective, and patient-centered solutions. A promising yet underutilized strategy is medicine repurposing, the practice of using existing medicines for new therapeutic purposes. Drug repurposing provides a strategic pathway to improving health outcomes while minimizing costs. A compelling example of this approach is the use of clonidine, a long-established cardiovascular drug, for the new application of treating insomnia and chronic pain.
