I found this pill in my daughters room and am worried about her. Can you tell me what is and what it is used for? ## Believe round white pill A | B 90 was misread due to a poor imprint. A | B CG is probable: when CG is inverted it looks like 90 if the imprint is soft or the pill has degraded. I have made this same mistake. Round, white pill A | B CG is probably Ritalin 10 mg, non-US manufacture.

I'm searching for a photo and information of a pill, its white and has SZ on one side and the other side has 20. I know it is a generic ritalin. im looking for a link that would have a photo of the pill and information. ## Ritalin "Sz 20" is manufactured by Sandoz Canada. I'm unable to locate a photo of the pill itself, however, Sandoz Canada does have contact information which you can call or email and someone there may be able to send you a photo of the pill or help in describing the physical properties of the pill: As far as information goes, Ritalin tablets contain the active ingredient methylphenidate hydrochloride, which is a psychostimulant drug approved for treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and narcol...

I have information about Ritalin but has anyone had experience giving it to their child. My son is 7 and has just started taking Ritalin He complained about feeling different in his head and hearing sounds like screaming. I'm petrified, is this normal? ## I am an adult, and never took Ritalin as a youth so I can only speculate from my adult experience. Basically, Ritalin is a stimulant (not a methamphetamine), but it does increase Central Nervous System activity which can cause hallucinations at times. I wouldn't freak out at your son's symptoms unless they are continuously occurring (like every time he takes a tablet), and continue well after the adjustment phase (for me, 1-2 months). I am not saying that hearing screaming is normal, but it's kind of like putting on gla...

I found this small reddish brownish oval pill shaped and on one side is engraved 54 on it, I've been googling and asking around about it but I just can't seem to find it anywhere on the Internet! Which is sad because my friends are doing these and worried because I never seen or heard of them in my life! There somewhat like the bigger pill they call ritilan with the M 54 written on the one side but this one is different, smaller and the number 54 is engraved on the one side! Is this what they say it is? Concerned for my friends! ## Hello, Amberlynn! How are you? Yes, there is a generic for Ritalin that matches this description and it contains 54mgs of Methylphenidate, it is manufactured by Kremers Urban Pharmaceuticals. The U.S. FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of...

I have been using the Ritalin manufacturer Watson but recently i filled it at a different pharmacy and was given Ritalin but the manufacturer was Qualitest and i do have good insurance. ## Hello, Julia! How are you? When a medication is available as a generic, it is usually manufactured by several different companies, it creates market competition to help keep prices down, so there is no difference, except for the fact that your new pharmacy carries one that's made by a different company. It has nothing to do with how good your insurance is, or etc. Under current U.S. laws, to try to lower costs, they are required to fill your prescription with a generic, unless your doctor specifies otherwise, or you are paying cash and don't want a generic, and then, when a generic is used, yo...

I am in pain clinic which prescribes oxycontin 80 mg and 60 mg, oxycodone 30 mg and 15 mg as well as adderall 30 mg. drug screen came back positive for ritalin, not adderall and have been threatened with dismissal. Any ideas on how false positive might be answer or what else could be the problem? I absolutely live and die by my medication as prescribed for thorasic osteomyilytis, ADD and carpell tunell. I'm terrified of being discharged. Any answers for me?? ## They are both, amphetamines, there's no way they could have know the difference. Someone ratted you out, or they are just looking for a reason to dismiss you for some reason. Doctors do that a lot of times, the doctor will get paranoid, and dismiss patients to save their own butt.... demand another drug screen else where ...

I need to know if this prescription is injectable. 10 pms 110? ## Pills are not made to be injectable. They contain fillers, which in some cases are meant to be expelled by the body and are not broken down. If you try to inject them, you can cause yourself dangerous problems. ## Its 10mg of Ritalin...not valium! ## It's a 10mlg pill that is blue and round it says cor on ome side then has a big x on the back

My daughter is currently on vitamin C, and Ritalin but recently I found a different pill that's been recently perscribed to her. (I do not meddle in her personal affairs) the pills are small, white, round and unmarked which makes me nervous because I've read that unmarked pills could be dangerous. They also have a break line on one side.

Seven year old grandson is on Methylphenidate. Doctor says drug test every 3 months. Insurance says not covered. First drug test statement, only EOB not bill, says cost is $6800. Cannot find anything on the web that says this drug test is required in Indiana. Can anyone help or tell me who to contact?

My 11 year old son has ADHD and is taking Ritalin. He has constant cramps of the stomach. Can he use Hyospasmol? ## Hello, Ally! How is your son doing? It would be better to take him to his doctor as he may need to try a different medication to avoid this side effect. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness and insomnia. How severe are the cramps? Are they constant or do they come and go? Has he had diarrhea? Has he been sick recently?

Hi, Can I open the Ritalin LA 20mg capsule and dissolve the little white balls in hot chocolate or coffee? My son just can't swallow the capsule. Your help would be much appreciated. Please reply. {edited for privacy}. ## Hello, Shelly! How are you? No, you can't dissolve them, because the LA means that this is a time released medication and doing so could cause him to get too much at once, which may result in a dangerous overdose. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, weight loss and insomnia. However, the medication guide does say that they can be sprinkled over something such as apple sauce and swallowed that way, so that should be fine, if his doctor approves. Is there anyth...

I found a prescription from 3 months ago. I had the same drug filled 20 days ago but I am out. Can I use the old script if I pay out of pocket? A family member has dementia and the stress has been unbearable since I have so much to do all the time. ## Hello, Bill! How are you? No, it would be illegal to do so. 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. If you are that stressed, you should see your doctor, so they can help you find appropriate treatment. Since this medication is a stimulant, it could actually make your stress worse. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello, I have ADHD and I've been taking Ritalin for a year now. It worked fine for more than nine months, increasing my memory dramatically, making me remember almost every word from the books I've read up until now. It was surprising how things just leaped up into my mind without any effort whatsoever. While doing something, I was always sure my memory would help me continue the best way possible, because it seemed as if I had knowledge about everything due to the fact that everything I knew was so easily recollected. However, during the last two months, I see no memory improvement when I take them. Yes, they increase my motivation still, but not my concentration or my memory anymore. Also, the side-effects have become much worse, as well as the comedowns. Is there something I ...

Found this pill in my son's room, can someone tell me what it is. Scored white round pill imprinted with C11. No other markings on the other side. I've looked all over and can't identify. ## So far, I haven't been able to find a listing that matches this description, either. However, I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you. Does anyone else recognize this tablet? Did you try asking him about it? ## We have gotten generic Ritalin for our son's ADD and it appears as you described. White tablet with imprint C11 on one side, backside scored down the center, no other markings. Poison control center sometimes has quick databases at their fingertips. Hope this helps. ## I have Lorazapam (S5) 1mg Tablets that firs your description.

I by accident drank my roommates coffee which had 3 milligrams of Ritalin in it at 8 PM on Sunday evening. I have a drug test (which tests for Ritalin) at 7 AM on tuesday morning. What can I do to get it out of my system before the drug test. How long would it take to get that 3 milligrams of Ritalin out of my system. I don't regularly or normally take Ritalin I took it by accident. Please let me know ASAP with any suggestions or information. ## 1 Ritalin will show up only on tests which specifically test or on an in depth toxicological diagnostic test. 2 Ritalin has a short half life, but that means little. Just because the 'active drug' is no longer in your blood, does not mean the metabolite will not be found on a tox screen. 3. Most 'drug screens' I have given ar...
