Methylphenidate, brand name Ritalin, is an amphetamine-like central nervous system stimulant used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, adolescents, and adults, as well as narcolepsy. 1 It is a Schedule II controlled substance.
July 3, 2007 -- Ritalin, a drug used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), may not leave long-term side effects on the brain, a new study shows.The Ritalin side effects study, published in The Journal of Neuroscience, was conducted on rats, not people.DHD is typically diagnosed in children, and Ritalin is one of the most commonly prescribed ADHD drugs, Milner's team notes. The researchers injected young male rats with Ritalin for about a month, starting when they were 1 week old, to mimic Ritalin use in people, who take Ritalin by mouth.
