Methylphenidate Solution

Generic Name: Methylphenidate Oral Solution (meth-ill-FEN-ih-date)
Brand Name: Methylin

Methylphenidate should be given with caution to patients with a history of drug dependence or alcoholism. Chronic abusive use can lead to marked tolerance and psychological dependence with varying degrees of abnormal behavior. Frank psychotic episodes can occur, especially with abuse of injections. Careful supervision is required during withdrawal from abusive use because depression may occur. Withdrawal following chronic therapeutic use may unmask symptoms of the underlying disorder that may require follow-up.

Methylphenidate Solution is used for:

Treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and uncontrollable sleep attacks (narcolepsy). It may also be prescribed for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Methylphenidate Solution is a central nervous system stimulant. It works by blocking 2 chemicals in the brain. The exact way Methylphenidate Solution works is unknown.
