Ritalin SR, how long does it help for?

Posted by ExhaustedMom on November 29, 2001 at 14:24:16:

Hi there. Feeling more human now that I'm on Ritalin SR 20 mg/day, but it seems to be conking out after about 8 hrs. No gittery feelings or speedy buzz, so I'm wondering if the doc can increase the dose, or is this the max for Ritalin? Anyone with similar experience? I'd appreciate any replys. Thanks! P.S. Student- they told me the CPAP was useless for my particular situation; I guess it was just a shot in the dark that didn't pan out. Thanks for your help.
