M 36 Methylphenidate

My son had SEVERE ADHD to the point of hitting teachers when he was 4 in preschool, so he was tried on many meds and finally placed him on 36 mg of Concerta and 1mg of Tenex for any left over aggression. When he was in 1st grade the Concerta was moved up to 54mg. Now he is almost 12 and he says he doesn't feel "normal" when he takes them (sometimes we skip weekends). What is the safest way to stop? ## Since it does contain Methylphenidate, which is a psychostimulant, there can be some problems and rebound effects, if you completely discontinue it abruptly. So, it really should be slowly tapered, to minimize the possibility of such issues occurring. Learn more Concerta details here. Have you consulted his doctor? They should be able to help you with a safe and effective taper...

I need to know what the difference is with the two sides on the inside of a Concerta 36? Is it 2 separate drugs that make it what it is because I was told one side was the actual methylphenidate and the other side was a blood pressure drug? Someone know is addicted to abusing pills or anything else it seems and I told him to not to misuse this pill, because I was also told it could kill a person if it's taken the wrong way. Can someone help me explain this pill to him so he can read for himself from someone else what's exactly going on because he thinks I'm joking about it and I just don't want him to die for making the wrong decision. Seriously as fast as you can possibly respond would be helpful. Thank you for your time in advance. ## Hello, Lee! How are you? No, there...

These were added to my son's regular prescription. I can't find the name or any information about it. He said he has been tired both days he has taken it. ## Hello, Judy! How are you? What medication is he taking? The tablet in question is manufactured by Kremers Urban Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 36mgs of Methylphenidate, which is most commonly used to treat ADHD and narcolepsy. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and weight loss.

Help! I found some pills in my sons room. Any idea what these are?? White, oval with 36 and N on opposite side. Grey, oval with 27 and N on opposite side. I searched all the databases and found nothing. Any assistance or suggestions would be grateful. Thanks. ## While these have not been found in the U.S. prescription drug databases, you may have already seen the response in the other thread, where someone said their pharmacist had identified one as Ritalin. It contains the active ingredient Methylphenidate and is used to treat ADHD and Narcolepsy. Since neither one is listed in the databases, I am unable to confirm this. However, there are several reasons that they may not be listed and one of them is that they may be generics that are very new to the market. Are there any other questi...

I have a good friend that takes Cocerta 36.5mg two daily for his ADHD. He has been subjected to a random drug test for 2 months in a row. Both tests have come back for methamphetamines, and I know he is NOT using Meth.This is the first time he has had to test in like 3 years. He also is on Wellbutrin and Abilify. He is on probation, and has to appear in court now. This false positive test could ruin his chance to remain on probation if the courts use these tests. Is there any options? ## Both Concerta (Methylphenidate) and Bupropion (Wellbutrin) are known to cause false positives for Amphetamines. Meth is an Amphetamine, so either of these could very well be the culprit here. If anything, I would consider trying to get your own drug test kit to verify these false positives, or have the ...
