Ritalin LA (Methylphenidate hydrochloride Capsule) 30mg

Methylphenidate, the active ingredient in RITALIN LA, works by inhibiting the reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain. This increases the concentrations of these neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft, enhancing their activity. This mechanism improves attention, impulse control, and executive function in individuals with ADHD.

The dosage of RITALIN LA is determined by a healthcare professional based on the individual's needs and response to the medication. It is typically started at a low dose and gradually increased as needed. The maximum recommended dose varies depending on the formulation and the patient's age.

The safety of RITALIN LA during pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been fully established. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. They can provide guidance based on your specific situation and the potential benefits versus risks.
