No, Concerta is not a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) drug. Concerta is a brand name for methylphenidate, which is a stimulant medication primarily used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). MAOIs are a different class of medications used to treat depression and anxiety by inhibiting the enzyme monoamine oxidase. Concerta works by increasing the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, but it does not function like an MAOI.
