No, clonidine is not an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). Clonidine is an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist primarily used to treat high blood pressure and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). SSRIs, on the other hand, are a class of antidepressants that work by increasing serotonin levels in the brain.
