THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
Central Nervous System Stimulant
ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
RITALIN
(methylphenidate
hydrochloride)
is
a
racemate
consisting
of
a
1:1
mixture
of
d-
methylphenidate
(d-MPH) and l-methylphenidate (l-MPH).
RITALIN is a mild central nervous system stimulant with more prominent
effects on mental than
motor activities.
The mode of action in man is not completely understood, but its
stimulant effects are thought to be
due to cortical stimulation
and possibly to stimulation
of the reticular activating system.
There
is
neither
specific
evidence,
which
clearly
establishes
the
mechanism
whereby
methylphenidate produces its mental and behavioural effects in
children, nor conclusive evidence
regarding how these effects relate to the condition of the central
nervous system (CNS).
PHARMACOKINETICS
ABSORPTION
Methylphenidate hydrochloride is rapidly and extensively absorbed from
the tablets following oral
administration;
however,
owing
to
extensive
first-pass
metabolism,
bioavailability
is
low
(approx. 30%) and large individual differences exist (11-52%). In one
study, the administration of
methylphenidate hydrochloride with food accelerated absorption, but
had no effect on the amount
absorbed.

Peak
plasma
concentrations
of 10.8 and 7.8 ng/mL were observed, on average, 2 hours after
administration
of
0.30
mg/kg
in
children
and
adults,
respectively. Peak plasma concentrations
