Stimulants Ritalin 10mg for study .. too much?

10mg. is too low of a dose. I'd try 25mg. (2 and a half tablets) and find a better stimulant.

Take it every four hours in 10mg. increases.
 
Yeah I hope you aren't snorting these, you don't need to tamper with pills to use them, I'd hate to see some thinking they are supposed to be snorting the pill.
 
Well , I took it the other day. Had the tablets orally, didn't crush and snort them. I ended up taking 5mg, then about half n hour later took the other 5mg, because i couldn't really feel anything too different. (I am going to take the 10mg at once next time).
How did it feel? Well it lasted about a couple of hours, it just make me kinda feel more relaxed, and less distracted from other things that would normally distract me. ( I was watching a lecture and taking notes). Normally i would get up numerous times and walk around. Except this time i just sat there, and only got up about twice for about 5 mins. I need to try it again, without breaking it up. I am going to try 10mg again, and then up it to 15mg.
 
Do you guys take it every 3-4 hours? eg.. lets say your studying for 6-8 hours?

3 hours would be alright, but a dose every two hours might be better. also this isn't the best option for studying, why have you chosen this substance? why not dex? anyways dosing at two hour intervals might be better, the problem with ritalin ime is that at the end of the day you're done, the crash is not something i was able to keep studying through, the dex crash on the other hand is easier to work through, you should try to really plan your studying well so you dont waste a second,
 
Okay! I would love to add my opinion to this! I have used ritalin enough to know that if you are looking for the increased focus part of it then taking a 10mg by mouth will do little if you crush it up and snort it which by means is completely able to be done you will notice an instant feel and will feel focused and your head will be clearer for anywhere for 35min to a hour. (This is considering you are a virgin to prescription drugs" Ritalin has a lesser effect them a majority of the drugs out there and most people wont get that feeling unless they take a high dose Well its not that there not getting the feeling but that there simply not realizing it because of they are comparing it to the high from other drugs I have tried oxy adderall and ritalin and using ritalin first i noticed it after trying oxy then going back to ritalin i had to dramatically increase my dosage to noticebly feel the effect previously described. Though we are all humans and react different to things i would suggest snorting it if you havnt snorted before! The effect wont last as long but will be more effective than taking it by mouth

methylphenidate should not be used by anyone for any reason. its a horrible ADD med, and isnt a very good recreational stimulant either. it has side effects up the wazoo, and its comedown is awful, and has a stronger impulse to redose than adderall or dexedrine.
 
It's funny, for other drugs everyone talks about how you shouldn't waste it, yet they get pissed about taking Ritalin another way. It's usually bad to IV/snort Ritalin because most brands have talc, which is nasty shit to inhale/IV. I recommend holding it under the tongue for stronger and quicker effects

For me, methylphenidate has less physical side effects but more mind side effects. I honestly don't think it's as shitty as everyone else makes it out to be, that would be true with phentermine. I say it's up there with other CII drugs in terms of fun, and effective for ADD. Plain Ritalin kind of takes some getting use to, but for me Focalin is much better. The only downside is it only lasts like 3 hours.
 
lucky, it lasts me about an hour if i take it orally.

which i dont anymore, i dont use mph at all in any form, huge waste of money.
 
I am currently cruising on the third 30 mg pill of Ritalin, as I took the first 8 hours ago. Having finals tomorrow, and have been consuming Ritalin at five other occasions the last two months, I personally find 120 mg a day suitable for a person like me at 81 kg (not having ADHD). I do find snorting more efficient for the short run, as it will give you a great kick in the beginning, and take the others orally. From my experience, it is a great drug, that have provided me excellent results as a senior at high-school.

To those who might wonder, I can so far only find advantages by taking Ritalin before exams/finals, but be prepared for a lazy day after finishing the test.
