I take Ritalin LA bid, a total of 60 mg/day.
Personally, concerta scares me a little. I have terrible GI tract problems, and the thought of an osmotic pump passing whole through my gut does not greatly appeal.
Ritalin LA is a bimodal release drug- half is relased immediately and half 4 hours later. It has been demonstrated to be equivalent to two doses of IR Ritalin dosed 4 hours apart.
