Methylphenidate, sold under the brand names Ritalin (/ˈrɪtəlɪn/ RIT-ə-lin) and Concerta (/kənˈsɜːrtə/ kən-SUR-tə) among others, is a potent central nervous system (CNS) stimulant used medically to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and, to a lesser extent, narcolepsy. It is a primary medication for ADHD (e.g. in the UK[15]); it may be taken by mouth or applied to the skin, and different formulations have varying durations of effect, commonly ranging from 2–4 hours.[2] For ADHD, the effectiveness of methylphenidate is comparable to atomoxetine[16][17][18][19] but modestly lower than amphetamines.[20][21][22][23]

Common adverse reactions of methylphenidate include: euphoria, dilated pupils, tachycardia, palpitations, headache, insomnia, anxiety, hyperhidrosis, weight loss, decreased appetite, dry mouth, nausea, and abdominal pain.[9] Withdrawal symptoms may include: chills, depression, drowsiness, dysphoria, exhaustion, headache, irritability, lethargy, nightmares, restlessness, suicidal thoughts, and weakness.[2]

Methylphenidate is believed to work by blocking the reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine by neurons.[24][25] It is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of the phenethylamine and piperidine classes. It is available as a generic medication.[26] In 2021, it was the 43rd most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 15.2 million prescriptions.[27][28]
