Quote from Garnet77:
My son was on Ritalin for ADHD for about 6 yrs. but is now recently taking Concerta cuz, Ritalin is very addictive.


Garnet, are you aware that Ritalin and Concerta are the SAME medication? They are the same medication (methylphenidate) but Concerta is a longer-acting formulation. Many believe that longer-acting meds are less addictive, but the potential is still there.
