> Metadate is just the generic equivilant of Ritalin SR. (methylphenidate in time release)No, Metadate is actually Ritalin. RitalinSR's half life contrary to the name has been shown to be not much longer than regular Ritalin, so Metadate is actually Ritalin with a different SR chemical which allows for a much longer half life.
