Does Methylphenidate 10 Mg Come In A Capsue

Updated

My doctor recently prescribed methylphenidate hcl, 10 mg, in capsule form. I had never heard of it coming in a capsule before, and I am not able to find it on the internet. Could you please let me know if it does come in capsule form, and could you please provide me with a picture of it, as well? Thank you very much for your time and energies!

I can't find an image or the markings, but our drug listing page does list a 10mg time released Methylphenidate capsule as being available on the U.S. market.

Are there any markings on the capsule in question? If so, please post back with them and I will gladly check for you, to confirm what it contains.

Yes, it does come in 10mg capsule form. The description of this pill is as follows; 10 mg, green/white capsules, imprinted with "CELLTECH 574" in white letters on the green cap, and "10 mg" in black letters on the white body. These are manufactured by Celltech Pharmaceuticals Inc.

I was unable to locate any photos of this 10mg capsule form online. However if you'd like you can write to the manufacturer at the address below to request images, and get more product information regarding the 10mg capsule:
