I was prescribed Ritalin and its helping a shitload but the main problem is my prescribed dosage doesn't seem to be enough. The stuff wears off after a few hours.

Whats the best method of ingestion to make you absorb as much as possible? I hear that insufflation is more potent but do the effects of snorting it wear off quicker than eating it like other drugs?

I'm definitely going to have trouble making the months supply last because the stuff helps so much I want to take more once it wears off. I need to know what the best method of ingestion is so I can make the most out of the months supply of the stuff. I'm guessing IV is the best method but I'm not gonna get into that.

Is insufflation the way to go?

I suggest you go to your doctor and tell them the ritalin isn't working well, ritalin is horrible anyway. Just tell them it does its job for about an hour then you feel worse the rest of the day. They will probably put you on something ENJOYABLE like dexedrine or adderall.

Peace. :D

Thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking the same thing myself. This particular doctor doesn't prescribe amphetamines unfortunately but he'll most likely up my dosage. Right now he prescribed 60 20mg pills, he says to take 1 a day for a week then start taking 2.

Yeah Ritalin isn't the best. It helps alot but at the same time amphetamines seem to work even better and have more positive effects. Don't get me wrong though Ritalin is fairly enjoyable but its fairly short lasting. I don't live in America so its much harder to get prescribed amphetamines but i have heard about people on Adderall in my country.

I thought in America they prescribed it more.. I also don't live in America. I do live in Canada though, and a fewww people I know have been prescribed amps. Good luck though.

Ritalin isn't meant to last long. You CAN snort it, but that will fuck with your health if you do it too often.I got prescribed 20 mg methylphenidate for homework purposes. Being 6'4 200 lbs, I would have to pop two of those to get the desired effects (for studying, not recreation). I stopped taking them because of the horrible come down and the insomnia. What you need is an extended release stimulant if you want it to last longer. I have been on a variety of ADD meds and here's how I rank them for medicinal purposes:

#1 Vyvanse (50-70mg)- Similar to Adderal, but less intense and less of a comedown.
#2 Adderal XR (20-30 mg)- Works great, more abuse potential, but I don't think I would wanna be on pure amps every day. Comedown is a bitch even on medicinal doses.
#3 Focalin XR(20-40mg)- Definitely stimulates you, but not as effectively as Adderal. Has a comedown about as bad as adderall. I had to take 40 mg for it to be effective (two pills of the highest dose)
#4 Concerta XR (55 mg): Keeps you awake but you feel shitty the whole time.

True, very true. IT makes me jittery, paranoid etc. I only sell them now. Can you believe there are fucking morons that actually pay 30 bucks a piece for a 54 mg (it's 54 mg not 55). It's an older lady too I donno what she does with them, but it works for me :D.

From what I just read it seems to have low bioavailability due to first-pass metabolism (stomach etc.) so try sublingual administration instead.

Not sure how bad Ritalin tastes, though, so don't get mad at me if it resembles either soap or dog shit. :p
