Did your...: ...physician prescribe this combination? Clonidine is a central-nervous system depressant approved for high blood pressure and ADHD, particularly for impulsive and hyperactive symptoms. Methylphenidate (Concerta) is a direct-acting CNS stimulant approved for ADHD. Risperidone (Risperdal) is a second-generation antipsychotic approved for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
