- Hi,
- What are the effects of Ritalin on the central nervous system
- (technically, speaking)? What makes it a stimulant (i.e. how does it
- increase vigilance)? What are the long term effects of its use?
- Finally, what are its side-effects (command and rare)?
-
- Please reply by e-mail or e-mail me a copy of your post.

- Thanks,
