Hi Harry,
I was recently prescribed Ritalin for ADD. The doctor said I could take 10 mg, three times a day, but I can't seem to take that much and still sleep at night, so I've just been taking it twice a day. It had an immediately energizing effect for me. I feel like exercising and getting more things done, but I'm not really sure if it helps with my concentration and organization which is the real reason I am taking it. It definitely helps me with lethargy, though. I am surprised that your doctor would prescribe it just for lethargy, considering how controlled the drug is. Adderall was very agitating for me, but I heard that it was the drug LESS likely to be abused. Maybe you just need to increase the dose. Good luck.
Cass
