Strattera made me so sleepy I could only take it at night. I quit cold turkey on it with no problem.

Ritalin is very short acting. I would talk to my pdoc about taking short acting for the 1st 4 hours of the morning, then ritalin sr or another form of time release for afternoon.

If you eat before you take ritalin it doesn't work as well. Also, any thing acidic will lower your absorption of the medication.

Ritalin gave me a slight buz the first 20 min or so, then mellowed. It was too short acting for me. It would just start to kick in right, then start going away. I would be very tired and grumpy as it wore off.
