WHAT MIDON TABLETS ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR Midon Tablets contain the active ingredient midodrine hydrochloride, which acts on the blood vessels via the sympathetic nervous system to correct imbalances of blood distribution, such as preventing too much blood pooling in the legs when standing up. Midon Tablets are used to stop the fall in your blood pressure as a result of your sympathetic nervous system not working correctly. This should help to relieve the symptoms which you might be suffering such as dizziness, fainting, blurred vision and weakness when you sit or stand up. 2.
