Ritalin instructions for use

Ritalin 10 mg belongs to the group of psychostimulants of non-amphetamine type. The drug has a stimulating effect on the body. It is used in pediatrics to treat children with attention deficit syndrome or hyperactivity disorder. When tolerance develops and in case of uncontrolled use, the substance causes stable dependence.

What are the indications for the use of Ritalin?

Psychiatrists and neurologists often prescribe this medicine for some pathologies of the nervous system. This category includes:

  • Narcolepsy;
  • CNS depression after taking medications and psychotropic substances;
  • Impairment of concentration and attention;
  • Depressive states.

Although it is possible to buy Ritalin online in an online pharmacy, the drug is not dispensed without a doctor's prescription, because it has side effects and is addictive.

Effects of the drug on the body

Ritalin causes the following reactions in the body:

  • Production of norepinephrine is increased, which has a stimulating effect on the nervous system. This effect helps to fight depression;
  • The drug improves concentration;
  • It tones the body;
  • After a course of therapy, the teenager gains self-confidence, self-esteem increases, and complexes disappear.

Even one tablet causes euphoria, which lasts for a long time. It increases blood pressure, but much less than Amphetamine.

The effects of Ritalin are stronger and faster than those of Adderall. However, Adderall is slower to be eliminated from the body and lasts longer than Ritalin.

Combination of Ritalin and alcohol

Stimulants increase concentration and brain activity, while alcohol has basically the opposite effect - it dulls the senses and reduces brain activity. Thus (the combination of these two factors) masks the symptoms of alcohol, so people feel less drunk than they really are, which makes them exceed the dose of alcohol from what they used to drink before.

And because the patient doesn't know they've had too much to drink, ethanol poisoning sets in, which can cause nausea, vomiting, irregular heartbeat, difficulty breathing and seizures, becomes a very serious problem. This is when it is important to seek emergency medical help.

Ritalin for adults

The effect of Ritalin is the same as that of other stimulants. After using the pills, the patient feels euphoria, an increase in alertness, and mental clarity. When the action of the substance ends, the opposite effects begin to appear - anxiety, insomnia, decreased level of perception. There appears a persistent desire to take a new dose.

The use of the drug increases the concentration of dopamine (the hormone of pleasure), which leads to the activation of the cerebral cortex. In addition, the production of norepinephrine, which stimulates the CNS, increases.

The action of Ritalin is somewhat similar to that of Amphetamine, but the substance does not excite the nervous system and does not affect blood pressure. 

Dependence on the drug occurs most often in young people, as the drug allows them to stay awake and active for a long time. Long-term use of the substance leads to physical and mental exhaustion, development of depression and personality degradation.

How is Ritalin eliminated from the body?

Ritalin medication is excreted through the kidneys. If there are any pathologies associated with this organ, the drug will be excreted more slowly. The half-life of Ritalin is 2-4 hours.

Ritalin for depression

Ritalin (Methylphenidate) can have the effect of antidepressants, so the drug can help treat depression, especially if this disease occurs at the same time as ADHD.

The drug is available with a prescription, but in our online pharmacy you will be able to buy Ritalin over-the-counter, since the price of the drug includes the price of a doctor's prescription.
