Sorry, can you reduce your question to 2 or 3 sentences (not to sound harsh)?

For Ritalin induced tachycardia, you could try atenolol (or another beta blocker). Alternatively, you could try augmenting with something like guanfacine or clonidine (alpha 2 agonists which are originally blood pressure drugs, but have independent effects of ADHD).

They may reduce the dose of Ritalin needed and/or treat tachycardia.
