- Ritalin or methylphenidate was initially approved about 65 years ago yet remains among the top 50 prescribed medicines in American. Ritalin ranks just behind asthma medicines as the second most common long term prescription agent for children. The main indication for Ritalin is ADHD - attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Several different forms of Ritalin exist - an immediate release form, a sustained release version and a long acting capsule. The likelihood of abuse and dependence generally appears at a dose of Ritalin higher than necessary to control symptoms of AHDH. Difficulty sleeping, mood disorders, restlessness, and interference with both linear growth and weight gain are well established side effects.
Approximately half of children and adults diagnosed with ADHD will begin drug therapy. Diagnosis of ADHD remains about 20 times more common in America compared to many European countries. In some European countries Ritalin is not legally available.
Some argue that the explosive surge of ADHD in America may be related to overdiagnosis and lack of recognition of underlying social or family issues. Drug company influence in the medical community, advertising and pharmaceutical involvement in medical research might inflate the rate of diagnosis. At present 1 in every 5 boys carry the diagnosis of ADHD with the vast majority also being diagnosed with other psychiatric diseases as well.
I have seen numerous videos by this man. He is highly intelligent and far more knowledgeable than many of the doctors I have encountered in my life.
Yeah because its a video genius. When you're treating hundreds of patients daily, you can criticize your doctors more fairly.
But he can't focus a camera😂
@@goodfellas5702the camera is not even moving it's sitting still and it's in high quality😅
He gave us so much info on all kinds of meds. Sadly he is no longer with us due to a car crash. Loved this guy.
Keep these videos going, it really takes years of knowledge and experience to explain these things so clearly and it is really helpful and well explained which is very informative. Thank you for the effort good doctor. Please keep the channel going with new videos regularly. I would like to see these kind of different videos from you more and more or may be about different medicines and health conditions.
Ritalin makes me incredibly productive and incredibly angry.
I feel great 30 minutes after super nice and then after 2 hours I can have a conversation without getting super annoyed
I am second-guessing every move I make.
Is the drug making my crappy job bearable?
Is the drug making me less sensitive and quick to anger?
My initial response might have been psychosomatic. For a day or two I was a man of action.
Read my explanation on the Rital if you can relate or have any same symptoms do let me know be much appreciated and usefulness towards a better life for u me every TH-cam maybe I'm 30 and blame all my illnesses brom being spoon fed it to switching hating Adderall and dex making me blurt out colors and traders shadow people ? Take care hope you nothing but a clean healthy life
Happy to hear it work for u
Easy. Just take it on grievance day.
One of my sons has taken methylphenidate for 1 year for his ADHD. It’s night and day. He actually likes school now, is on the principles list. Yes, it does effect appetite. I know adults who have taken it their whole lives. My son is off meds on the weekend and during all vacations. Yes, you need to be under supervision of a physician. We monitor his growth and any possible side effects. It took us seeing a child psychiatrist for 2 years before taking the meds.
The right dose of the right medication can be incredibly transforming. The wrong dose of the wrong meds can also be transforming, but often not in a good way. One of the most difficult things in psychiatry is willing to try different things. It can be frustrating. And to be fair, sometimes, for some, the side effects aren't worth it. But I think the stimulants can offer benefit if used properly. As for risk factors, any good doctor would have a patient get EKGs and physical etc before using stimulants. Frankly, even coffee could kill someone with a heart problem. Everything in moderation. Anyway, glad it's helped.
Bla bla bla..
@@strongalex285 OK so from your advice I can use heroin in moderation right? What about fentanyl? Is meth OK in moderation? You really should listen to this entire presentation to the end. I was just like your child apparently. I was diagnosed when I was five was given the medication and a family member of mine started to abuse it and take my meds so I was only on it at school and off of it when I was at home.. I was on it till I was about 14 and I was sent away to a wilderness educational camp where their stipulation was you cannot be on any prescription medication. At least narcotics. What you’re doing is you’re giving your son a low dosage of meth basically. Sure it’ll make him focus on boring stuff and be able to exceed at an interesting tasks. But there are plenty of other ways to get him to that point where he can do that without giving him chemical substances. Just because a doctor says it’s good does not mean it is really good! Do you know what else transforms life? God. Yahweh Jesus Christ the Bible. God changed my life 100 million times better than Ritalin could ever do.. There are better ways to help your child without give him chemical substances. I think that’s a very lazy alternative! I think it’s an absolute last resort!
Well I’m super happy that it made your parenting easier by giving your son a low dosage of methamphetamines basically. I’m glad you didn’t have to work really hard to teach your son how to behave. Or how to cope with whatever in attentiveness he had. It’s really easy just to give someone a little tablet and say pop this you’ll feel better. You seem like a wonderful parent!
@@jonathanstell9732 Shut the fuck up moron. Listen here idiot. Don’t project your problems on me. What ever issues you had with your daddy… it’s time to grow up now.
I love it when lonely men like you, try to vent online. It’s to bad you have no women, if you have kids; they’re definitely not with you. I guess your job sucks. Your just a sad little man. Let me guess, no one talks to you, this is probably your first conversation in months. Fight with your neighbors much?
Joh, your videos are SOOO good!!!
It makes a night and day difference in me. I’m 35 and I have been using a form of this since I was 8 years old lol. I tried to come off it when I was adult, just to see how I would do. It short order I was overly energetic, lost my keys everyday, house a mess, would scroll endlessly on my phone, I couldn’t stay on task and talked everyone’s ear off lol. After two days of being on it again, my house is clean, I stay on task, I’m so calm, I’m perfectly fine just sitting there without finding a need to get up every five seconds. My sleep even improved from not having racing thoughts. Honestly I wish I didn’t have to take it, but I do and accepted it. That’s okay, I view it as eye glasses, wish I didn’t need to wear them, but I need to see clearly. Also I never got the euphoria off of it, simply made me calm.
Presented with amazing clarity. I was diagnosed with ADD as a teen but refused medicating. Now an adult with my own children - two of whom Ritalin has been suggested - I thought to spare them the chaotic life I've had. I asked them if they wanted to try medication. They both said NO! I decided to try it as an adult who dropped out of college several times. The result has been astounding! I wish I had at least tried it earlier in life because I am very noticeably more effective - especially in the areas of executive functioning. Although I told no one except my husband - everyone noticed! Of course my kiddos who are now adults, have become more open to the idea of medication. They can make their own informed decisions now. It will be interesting to see what becomes of this generational experiment. Thank you for this video. It has been most enlightening!
What are the side effects.
@@ricovickers2755 Not good. They differ but nobody will tell you about the meds potentially taking away your emotions, retarding you mentally, blurred vision, memory issues, giving you sexual dysfunction, muscle aches, headaches, dry mouth, dry eyes, dry down there as well, testicular atrophy due to hypogonadism caused by lowered testosterone, which causes decreased fertility. This all happened to me. Basically neurotoxicity, vascular neuropathy and cerebral vaculitis.
@@TheDavveponken holy shit. They reduce the fertility?
I noticed that Ritalin treats my depression better than SSRI's do. The only problem is that even the long acting release doesn't seem to last that long so I'm gonna be switching to Adderal instead.
I’m so sick of Doctors trying different medication to help me without giving me enough knowledge of the medication, but I do like your videos so thanks
I've already fallen into the trap. Wish I sore all of this first. Now I'm screwed
I use it to quit smoking
what great man and genius Scientist ++++ we need more guys like you
super interesting doctor..... love you doctor....
Very enlightening
I'm a pharmD student (4th year) and have been relying on your videos to enhance my drug & disease knowledge as they are so detailed and interesting!!
This video in particular is useful because I'm convinced I have ADHD and am about to discuss this with my doctor. At age 42 it has taken me this long to get to my final career destination and while I have accomplishments in a wide variety of areas, looking back I know I have some learning abnormalities but have always been able to compensate with my aptitude and through developing certain habits over the years but I'm at a point where I am thinking about medication. Thank you for all your videos
Thanks for fulfilling my request for a Ritalin video. :D

@@malcombrian749 yeah nah
Perfect description!
Very informative, 10/10 video. Thank you for passing your knowledge onwards.
What a great video!
What’s “MAO”?
I’m on verapamil and flecainide for A/F.
Also taking venlafaxine for major depression and another med for pre-diabetes!
I have had narcolepsy for 25 or so years(diagnosed by sleep study) & have used Ritalin successfully. Tried Provigil briefly but results were disappointing. I have had issues w/ insurance refusing to cover cost of Ritalin because I'm an adult! More awareness is needed re: its' use for narcolepsy! I'll need to keep looking for videos on that subject. Thanks for relatable content.
Hi Susan,
I was diagnosed with excessive daytime sleepiness which is a form of narcolepsy back in 2015. I was prescribed Xyrem; this drug would knock me out at night but had a lot of sodium in it. I then took myself off the medication due to the amount of sodium and was just prescribed Ritalin. The first day I took Ritalin I noticed a big difference. I actually wanted to do things, I felt great and didn’t feel like sleeping. How long have you been on the medicine? Any side effects?

Are you doing porn with Ritalin?
Wow, perfect timing. got a Ritalin prescription this week and about to start taking it.
Welcome to a lifetime of addiction on Ritalin and later something stronger don't listen to the pushers its a little part of life that you can go through naturally
manoftheroad why are you telling someone with adhd not to take their medication? Are you a doctor?
@@xgengx7530 Because its probably its a phase of life, personal issues, work, pressure a small aberrations of life with no need for manufactured synthesised drugs and besides Doctors also have million $ mortgages/ house loans to push up hill. The largest mass murder in England with 100s of victims was Dr Shipton and all the other Doctors who worked with him didn't recognise him as mad.
Watch pornography on Ritalin
@@manoftheroad55 I see where you're coming from, but when modafinil and armodafinil didn't work for my sleep apnea and narcolepsy, ritalin was the only one that somewhat worked, no longer on it though, hated the side affects
Wow you are just a wealth of information thank you so much!

Hey Dr Im currently on zopiclone and still not feeling rested and fatigue as well as burning nerves feeling in my brain what else can I ask my doctor to give me
Mirtazapine, zopiclone is like a more specific benzodiazepine and as such, if you have been taking it for a long time, taper your dose
I took around 100mg or more of Ritalin at one time one day. Maybe more, didn’t sleep for 3 days, didn’t eat and lost a lot of weight, and had a schizophrenic episode during that time. My heart also hurt for a few weeks after that. Will never do that again. It’s definitely great for weight loss though, despite the terrible mental and physical effects.
bruh, I take 5mg doses. 100mg is insane lol.
The documentary on Netflix “Take Your Pills” took your words in this video word for word .. unless this info is on another website word for word .
Methylphenidate vs methamphetamine
Can you break it down ?
This dude makes every drug sound horrrible 😂 😂 😂
No, he is just spitting out pure facts about the drugs without exaggerating the benefits.
Do you find it funny ? Almost all drugs have major side effects specifically stimulates. They change your brain chemistry. Stay away from it. Trust me. I know what I’m talking about.
@@Fvffndgnvfgjbdd No, he really doesn’t know what he’s talking about. A lot of people fall back on the fact they have MD after their names to spout nonsense on YT, and he’s one of them.
No nonsense here, he is using data and statistics, he hasn't prescribed them much but that doesn't make a big difference, more so if he did prescribe he wouldn't be so honest,bad for business.
😂😂😂
Could you do a short video on the interactions between Ritalin and alcohol please
He says ( in this video ) mixing with alcohol is not good ! Sounds like a bad medication to me, with or without alcohol.
Ritalin in the morning, alcohol in the evening. I do that a lot and like it.
@@Muesluem4Bundesrat ye that's what I've been doing I just leave 6 hours after the last time I take it

Thank You for this very clear information on Ritalin . I think I`ll pass on these type of options .
I’m confused.
I don’t know how to assess the medication is of any benefit.
Yes man
A lot of these side effects are kinda horse shit. Idk what to believe about the ssris now. I can literally take it one day and not take it the other. I’ve taken it for years and stopped it for years. The real addiction is the level that you perform on with ritalin. I got a fucking degree and a job as a web dev. I simply can’t perform at that level with coffee alone. But be prepared for anxiety and depression while on it. It can make you fixate on things so you need to keep your mind off of negative thoughts.
Ritalin totally took away my depression and anxiety. I am just sorry that it took me 48 years to realize that I had ADHD so that this could be resolved.
@@polarpalmwv4427 It took my emotions away entirely and gave me a whole range of real adverse conditions...
Can you take this on 75mg of venlafaxine?

So what do us people that have something wrong with our blood pressure do since we only got diagnosed later on in life? We just go untreated and get nowhere in life? Because without the medication there is no motivation and concentration issues…
I was prescribed Ritalin while also taking a blood pressure medication (which I am now weaning off of). Depending on your situation, if your BP is well controlled with only one medication and has been stable for a long time, they may be willing to treat you anyway.
@@doesnotFempute Blood pressure isn't the only parameter. I now have circulatory issues after I was put on ritalin and my blood pressure was fine. Also blood pressure is very individual what's normal/optimal. I feel so stupid for being tricked into this, I wasn't informed of any negative side effects such as these. I asked her point blank, will it affect my personality? Will side effects go away after stopping? No, she says.
Isn't the D and L form for adderal not ritalin?
Ritalin (or rather, methylphenidate) is composed by two substances too. Interestingly enough, the way some people react differently to Ritalin and generics is (in big part) duo to a bit of a difference in the % of the D and L in the pill. They all need to contain the same amount of methylphenidate (at least in my country) but the % of D and L may vary.
Can you make a video about Desoxyn?

@@KevinColumbus yip thanks i ve seen it it, question is older than video
Iceland is such a bad example like the country has less than 400.000 people?
There is a high potential for addiction..
I don’t feel euphoric on 20mg slow release twice per day.
Early on I thought Ritalin was effective but now I’m thinking maybe I was imagining it like a placebo effect.
I’ve had the same experience lol
Same here except it made me miserable.
If feel very very good on 30 mg twice day morning to kick off and after 3 hours to avoid the crash. I am thinking of tapering off parallely increasing buspiron
The reason it’s used less in Europe than the US is because education is different. In Europe children do more group work until the 6th grade as opposed to the children in the US.
Works very well against my ADHD and axienty. I sweat a lot more, my bloodpreasure gets high, but otherwise no problems.
Attention: Mixing with excessive amounts of kratom induces depression. Take care.
How are you now? Six months since you've had this medication.
Rita :))
Took this all through my earlier life. I was a zombie, never ate, would go all day at school without talking to anyone. All still had no interest in school or authority. Parents please be aware of how your child is effected by this drug. It ruined my middle school experience. Eventually, I would put it under my tongue and spit it out.
Ritalin has been a miracle for me! I just started on it - but it has resolved all of my depression, anxiety, brain fog... It's been AMAZING the change that it has made to my mood, to my motivation, and to my life.
I feel like this and I don’t take anything

Exactly right.... they are snake oils ..a con pushing people into a legalised lifetime of addiction invented by corporate and pushed by psychiatrist onto the vulnerable and screwed up
Not to forget the pressure that is imposed by the crappy educational system
@@manoftheroad55 Uhm, snake oil is a term used for fake medicine... If you think people "get hooked" its because its not fake, it does what it should - increased energy and focus / mood. Meaning its definitely not snake oil, no matter if your second assertion is true. And to the second assertion itself - why? Do you also believe other conspiracy theories in general? Do you think the tens of thousands of medical profesionals are in it to harm people? Do you think all the people that take it are idiots? Milions of people are using some kind of ADHD medication, researched by thousands of scientist and prescribed by tens of thousands of doctors. But YOU know the truth. They are all stupid. They did not do the research you have done. They all fail to see the OBVIOUS ploy... there is no medical issue they need fixed by the medication... They are just so stupid, that they fell for it and got addicted to something that doesnt help them, only serves to harm them. Is that what you think?
@@psychepeteschannel5500 it’s is what that moron thinks 😂
That shit is just legal speed they go for 10 dollars a peice on the street 36 mg its devil
As someone who has lived for 48 years with undiagnosed ADHD, I can promise you that the depression, anxiety, horrible memory (literally forgetting my train of thought mid-sentence on a daily basis), and so forth were FAR WORSE than any side effect from Ritalin. Ritalin has changed my life. It took away my depression and anxiety. It let me think clearly for the first time ever. I finally feel like I am living instead of existing. Stigmatizing Ritalin is NOT doing anyone any good and is instead dooming those who believe you to a lifetime of misery.
@@polarpalmwv4427 what dose are you taking?
Watching on it now sniffed 18mg and took 3 18mg...😜😜😜😜😜first time so don't know what to expect...
Ritalin concerta medikinet = kokain
Nonsense. If you have ever lived with the crippling mental effects of severe ADHD, you would know that they are FAR WORSE than any stimulant medication's dangers.
@@polarpalmwv4427 all psykiatri disorders ara bullshit
@@vagnmller507 You are wrong. The stigma surrounding mental health, that your attitude creates, causes too many people to avoid seeking mental health treatment which, in turn, increases suicide rates.
Dont take this. It made me exhausted and agitated at the same time. Complete misery and dysphoria; my body was aching, I felt weak, restless and confused for the rest of the day then kept me up all night
Well, that was your experience, and it's very normal for people with ADHD to have to try different meds & dosages before they find one that works for them. I started taking Ritalin recently (1 and 1/2 years ago) and my life has never been better, I'm doing alright in college (first time in my academic life) and a myriad of other things.
In my country, generally our shrinks don't or won't prescribe anything other than dexamphetimine to begin with. It's when I check out TH-cam videos of other people's stories. I see being juggled around with other adhd stims, especially in the USA. There just seems more risk, side effects & time waisted b4 people are in a better place for being properly medicated for adhd?
Ritalin reacts on everyone differently. I am sorry you had to deal with those things. For me, Ritalin has changed my life for the better. It completely resolved my crippling anxiety and depression. I am just sorry that it took me 48 years of misery before finally realizing that I had ADHD and starting on treatment.
me as well, no feeling, just suicidality. Sexual dysfunction and testicular atrophy as well (I couldn't feel my genitals), headaches, muscle aches, retardation of the mind, scared of loud noises. Worst thing that ever happened to me, and I don't know if all of it will go away. Did you get better/normal?
I been on ritalin for 18 years it has changed my life I can go to movies without getting distracted I can work I dont get in trouble with the law since people bash ritalin but it changed life anyone who bash I will treat them with contempt
same dude. i relate to exactly what your describing. great weight loss, for me as well.
As a baby I was told by doctor to crush up the Ritalin I mean my parents. in in a spoon and then with few drops of water was able to spoon feed me stimulants as a baby later on I could be wrong but at the age I was able crawl an speak was talking to invisible people in my room lights were blurry and are still kinda at 30yrs old I am now trying to get by day by day sometime moment to moment with crippling anxiety depression and prob fe other unknown diseases or illnesses. Back to high-school I found out about opiates and the dexies... Reameber not baby no more spoon fed 10 15 mg of Ritalin they had me on dexidrine massive amount than to dose me asking is it workin (john noe)ME...WELL I FEEL JITTERY AND DEPRESSED and then though wow idk how am I really suppose to feel.. I mean I've always felt same good when my doctor asked and focused back on Ritalin start trade for hydrocoodone and oxygen I thought I found my med to help get through the feeling I was clearly feeling at that age 16 was self medicating only with the opiate to level me out cause I felt like I was a different person communicating and feeling rage with random bursts (semi treatment methadone and subs with I'm trying hard to get off funny make enough to stay on it but don't my near enough to get the proper duel diagnoses center.!(please PLEASE IF U MADE IT THIS FAR AND HAVE EXPERIENCED WHAT I HAVE PLEASE REPLY ANYTHING ONE LOVE PEOPLE!
Why did you recieve it as a baby? I did, as well, and am trying to figure out why. I was adopted. I figured maybe my birth mother had an addiction of sorts.
I got it as a kid too since I had really bad adhd
