Clonidine is classified as a central alpha-2 adrenergic agonist and is considered a "downer." It primarily acts by reducing sympathetic nervous system activity, leading to a calming effect, which can help lower blood pressure and alleviate anxiety. Unlike stimulants (uppers), clonidine promotes sedation and relaxation.
