Re: Ritalin - Brain Boosting Drugs (Supposedly)
I have only encountered Ritalin when it has been prescribed for ADH in children.... I admit I haven`t read anything regarding its "brain boosting" properties but adults are (apparantly) 60 times more likely to suffer side effects than children. Some of the side effects include......
Insomnia
Dermatitis
Anorexia
Palpitations
Nausea
Dizziness
Blood Pressure abnormalities
Drowsiness
Angina
Cardia Arrhythmia
Abdominal Pain
Tachycardia (rapid pulse)
Nervousness/anxiety
More rarely....
Toxic Psychosis
Tourettes Syndrome
Not a drug I think I`d actually be wanting to take, far better to stick with the omega 3 for increasing brain power in my opinion
